Hi all,
how do I interpret the coefficients of multiple dummy variables, if I have an ordered logit model, gologit and mlogit model ?. For example if I have a categorical independent variable with let's say 4 possible outcomes: A,B,C,D. If I recode this variable into 4 dummies and incorporate 3 (B,C, D) into a regression as 3 independent variables. My question now is, how does the result mean? Do I have to treat each dummy variable as an independent or I have to compare each dummy variable (B,C,D) with the dropped dummy variable (A)?
thanks and regards Carolina
