In Table 1, The titles of Columns 3 and 4 were transposed. The third column should be Born from April 1962 to March 1967 (n = 1,603) and the fourth column should be Born from April 1957 to March 1962 (n = 1,365). Please see the correct Table 1 here.

In Fig 1, the x-axis categories were not in the intended chronological order. Please see the correct Fig 1 here.

In S2 Table, the titles of Columns 3 and 4 were transposed. The third column should be Born from April 1962 to March 1967 (n = 1,603) and the fourth column should be Born from April 1957 to March 1962 (n = 1,365). In addition, for most rows (all except the “Age and Employed” rows), the data in Columns 4 and 5 were inadvertently swapped. Please view the correct S2 Table below.
