  • Reference group with multiple dichotomous variables

    Hello Statalist

    I have a question regarding how to interpret the reference group in my logistic regression. I have four independent variables and one dependent variable. All dichotomous. When i run a logistic regression with X1 and Y, the reference group is when X1 has the value 0. Is that correctly understood? Furthermore, how do i show this in an output table in my assignment? Since they are dichotomous then when X1 = 0 X2, X3 and X4 either = 1 or 0 becasuse they are mututally exclusive. Should i write that X2, X3 and X4 are all the reference group or just that X1=0 is the reference group?

    If i run a mutiple regression with all the variables, i should exclude one independent variable (becuse k-1) which would then be the reference group.

    Any advice or input is much appreciated!
