From: The role of bipolar disorder and family wealth in choosing creative occupations
Share in creative occupations: people with BD and their siblings, compared with the population. Note OLS estimates (and 95-percent confidence intervals) of β in the equation creativeit = β Xi + γ Fi + θc(i) + τt + εit where creativeit equals one if person i is employed in a creative profession in year t. In the BD series, Xi is an indicator for people who have received at least one diagnosis of BD at least once. For siblings of BD, Xi indicates siblings of people with BD. The variable Fi is an indicator for females. A vector of cohort fixed effects θc(i) controls for systematic differences in the propensity to hold a creative job across cohorts; a vector of year fixed effects τt controls for differences over time. We report coefficients and confidence intervals as the share of the mean of the dependent variable. Standard errors are clustered at the individual level. Creative professions are listed in Appendix Table A2, together with ISCO-4 codes.
