s(n) n observations predict success perfectly, and the corresponding variable and the n observations are dropped in estimation.
f(n) n observations predict failure perfectly, and the corresponding variable and the n observations are dropped in estimation.
* 10% ** 5% *** 1%
Categories b (fishing) and c (mining, quarrying) are omitted due to the small number of observations.
The three goodness-of-fit measures are described in Verbeek (2004: 194-197). Sum of PCP is the sum of the proportions of correct predictions for anti = 1 and anti = 0.
Sampling weights provided by ESS are applied in maximum likelihood estimation. The adjustment reflects the population size of each country.
Estimated standard errors are based on the assumption that observations are not necessarily independent within each region of a country, but are independent across regions of the country.
14 country dummies are included with UK being the reference. (NB: Belgium is included because isb is not used.)
