This is to be expected; if you found it surprising you need to read
the -asclogit- manual entry more carefully. Whether it's correct or
not really depends on what you are trying to do. I would suggest that
including socio-demographics in your model only makes sense if you
interact them with the alternative-specific attributes, since your
alternatives are unlabelled.
