The following variables were not among the significant predictors of the respective models: gender, age, high school education, duration of years working on the respective profession, absorption, dedication, or Search for insight/wisdom.
*Because the regression coefficients may be compromised by collinearity, we checked the variance inflation factor (VIF) as an indicator for collinearity. VIF > 10 is indicative of high collinearity.
