Notes: N = 7,371. Unstandardized linear coefficients are presented with robust standard errors in parentheses. Coefficients represent the direct, indirect, and total associations between education/occupation and self-rated health as depicted in Figure 2 and reported in Tables 3 and 4. BA = Black American. Medium/dark = skin tone distinctions.
