Notes: The outcome is the (standardized) number of primary healthcare visits with a non-mental-health related symptom or diagnosis. The independent variables are the (standardized) number of sick leaves due to non-mental health symptoms or diagnoses per dynastic category. Child health is measured at ages 13–18, while parental health is measured at ages 25–30. One observation per parent–child pair in all regressions. Controls included in the regressions but excluded from the table are indicators for the number of maternal and paternal siblings, siblings’ spouses, cousins, spouses of cousins, and siblings of spouses of parents’ siblings, gender of the child, fixed effects for the year of birth and for the year when the child is first observed in the primary healthcare data (KHUR), and indicators for whether it is possible to identify in the data each grandparent and great-grandparent. MH denotes mental health while OH denotes non-mental health events. Eicker–Huber–White robust standard errors in parentheses. Significance: *p < 0.10, **p < 0.05, ***p < 0.01.
