This table represents the results for logistic regressions of individuals’ satisfaction on early skills (in SD). The dichotomous dependent variables are composed by the variables used in the remainder of the chapter. For life satisfaction, observations below six are considered as not satisfied and observations of six and more are considered as satisfied. For satisfaction with general health, observations below four are considered as not satisfied and observations of four and more are considered as satisfied. For satisfaction with financial management, observations below five are considered as not satisfied and observations of five and more are considered as satisfied. For happiness in relationship, observations below five are considered as not happy and observations of five and more are considered as happy. For job satisfaction, observations below four are considered as not satisfied and observations of four and more are considered as satisfied. For emotional satisfaction, observations below five are considered as not satisfied and observations of five and more are considered as satisfied. Unreported controls are intelligence and sex. We apply the Bonferroni correction for five, except for the regression on life satisfaction. Robust standard errors are in parentheses. *** p< .01, ** p< .05, * p< .1. 195
