Other variables included in the estimated models are: log net household wealth and its interactions with the house price expectations dummies, respondent gender, age (six interval variables), number of persons in the household (six 0/1 dummies), couple dummy, children dummy, labour status dummies for respondent (four categories) and partner (if any).
Specifications also include year of survey dummies, regional dummies, dummies of child's year of birth, cubics in parental dates of birth.

It depicts a ventriloquist and his alarmingly ugly dummy entertaining children at a birthday party.
He has compared himself to a piñata a papier-mâché dummy that children bash open at birthday parties because everyone has been swiping at him.
Due to some correlation of the variables especially between household size and the dummy for children, we tested the model in several specifications.
It was also shown that restraint system design variables, such as lap belt angle, D-ring height, and seat coefficient of friction (COF), may have opposite effects on head and abdomen injury risks; therefore child dummies and dummy models capable of simulating submarining are crucial for future restraint system design optimization for young school-aged children.
A sensitivity analysis using this validated child dummy model showed that dummy knee excursion, torso rotation angle, and the difference between head and knee excursions were good predictors for submarining status.
Manufacturers are now developing a family of dummies, including children and adults of both sexes of various sizes.
"This is the most advanced equipment in the world," she said, referring to the equipment as "the crash-test dummies of children's products".
