Statistical significance levels of differences between research groups are indicated as * = 10 percent; ** = 5 per cent; *** = 1 per cent.R-NR denotes the results of t-tests of the difference between respondent <strong>and</strong> non-respondent differences for earch research group <strong>and</strong>subgroup characteristic. Statistical significance levels of differences between respondent <strong>and</strong> non-respondent differences are indicated as †= 10 per cent; ††= 5 per cent; †††= 1 per cent, based on a q-test.Rounding may cause slight discrepancies in differences.Table D.3Results of Linear Regression of Binary <strong>Research</strong> Group Membership Indicator on Baseline Characteristics, for 54-month Respondentslearn$ave-onlyvs Controllearn$ave-plusvs learn$ave-onlylearn$ave-plusvs ControlCharacteristic at Baseline Coeff.
