OLRC controlled for:
-health
-gender
-number of children
-marital status
-size of town
-education
-labor market status
-income.

OLRC (Ordered Logit Regression Coefficient) cannot be interpreted as an absolute effect-size. The coefficients only denote relative differences in correlation between age and happiness, e.g.a more negative correlation in Finland than in Argentina.
