  • Adjustment for time-stable characteristics was performed by inclusion of a latent variable in the models.

  • *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.

  • †Standardised β-coefficients.

  • CFI, Comparative Fit Index; DC ratio, demand–control ratio; ER ratio, effort–reward ratio; RMSEA, root mean square error of approximation; SRMR, standardised root mean square residual; TLI, Tucker-Lewis Index.
