Categorical variables - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Dummy variables are essential in regression analysis to quantify qualitative variables that influence the dependent variable. They represent attributes like gender, education level, or region with binary values (0 or 1). Econometricians use dummy variables as proxies for unmeasurable factors. These
