Notes: The block contributions were calculated using the changes in the variables multiplied by the short-run coefficients estimated by
random effects ordered probit, and then aggregated. The only exception was unemployment, for which we used the long-run coefficient. The
upper and lower bounds where calculated using plus and minus one standard deviation.

$ The quantitative rating scale is in brackets.
