Regression with categorial predictor

[Hillary Connolly]

Edit: figured it out! it compares that specific group to all the other groups combined.



I had someone ask me a question tonight and I cant figure it out.

I know that if I do a regression with a categorial variable I know I can set the base level by using ib#.variable BUT if I simple do regress var1 #.var2 I get output but I cant for the life of me figure out what its showing me.
