Added July 29, 2013:

(1) For the variables handdum, handper, educ, and hsat missing values
were imputed by gender-specific sample average values. Only the
imputed values have more than 6 digits.

(2) In table 1 of the paper the appropriate counts for male hospital
visits are

for 3 visits 0.15

for 4-9 visits 0.203

(3) The reference year in table 2 is 1984.

(4) Table 3: The labels yes and no are inverted for descriptives of
males' values for the variables married and children in household.

(5) The variables handdum and handper are miscoded in 1987. The
handdum indicator shows swapped values for 0 and 1. The handper
variable was erroneously imputed.

I apologize for any hassles this may (have) cause(d).
