†The variable ‘Line manager is a clinical expert’ is a dummy variable that takes the value of one when the physician’s immediate senior is rated in the top-two categories (and a value of 0 otherwise) using the following assessment: My immediate senior is ‘a highly distinguished clinician’, ‘a distinguished clinician’, ‘an averagely able clinician’, ‘not that interested in clinical work’, ‘not a clinician’ and ‘others (please specify)’.
‡The job position dummies are for the job grades listed in table 2.
