st: Interpretation of oprobit coefficients

Hello!
I am running ordered probit regression and I need some help with the
interpretation of the coefficients. The dependent variable has 4
categories. A few of the independent var-s are level. One is ln(GDP
per capita). I also have 3 categorical independent variables,
converted to dummies. So my question is, how to interpret the effect
on ln(GDP per capita) on y*. And how to do the same for the dummies?
Here is the part of the raw and standardized coefficients that bothers
me:
Y* | b z P>|z| bStdX
bStdY bStdXY SDofX
