Notes: The analyses use linked administrative register data from the Netherlands (2006–2018) for children living in two-parent families at the time of the test. Table S3 in the online appendix shows the full set of regression coefficients.

a

Parental immigration, ethnic background, marital status, and birth cohort; household residential characteristics; and child's sex and adoptee status.

b

Parental education, employment, disability, and income.

c
