Dummy variables for ordinal logistic regression on Jamovi
Posted: Mon Apr 22, 2024 9:21 am
Hey guys!
So i'm in a state of confusion as to whether Jamovi automatically takes into account of how most logistic regressions need dummy variables for each value/level/category of their variable. I've seen that a lot of people do that for their logistic regressions on similar studies of mine but where they use a different programme. While i'm watching tutorials on YouTube I do not see anyone making dummyvariables for their variables, and was therefore wondering if Jamovi has this already programmed into the software where it takes account of all that already?
For context, my independent categories are nominal and therefore don't have an average. (Also might as well pop another small question in here to verify, ordinal logistic regressions only require the dependent variable to be ordinal, right?
Hope my short question made sense... and thank you for taking your time to help me out.
