Model 1 is adjusted for age, income, and covariate before downsizing, with the exception of job insecurity which was not measured at baseline.
Model 2 is additionally adjusted for covariate at the end of downsizing.
Italics are used to point out attenuation >10% in the effect of major downsizing in model 2 compared with that in model 1. A higher attenuation indicates a higher contribution of the covariate as an explanatory factor.
