Ok Arne,
now It's clear and I have had good results.
Just a doubt. When I put inside the socio-demographic variables, the
output has the four alternatives 1,2,3,4, even if I write nocons.
I don't understand the meaning of this output considering that I have
unlabelled alternatives.
Is however correct this result?

Thank you,
Elisabetta
