Notes: Propensity scores matching estimation based with Epanechnikov kernel weighting function with bootstrapped standard errors. Individuals in Panel 4 are tracked from 2002 to 2006, while individuals in Panel 5 are followed from 2005 to 2009. *** statistically significant at 1%, ** statistically significant at 5%.
