how to deal with dummy variable in eviews
Posted: Tue Aug 04, 2009 5:53 am
hello eviews users.
i'm a new user of eviews and i'm currently working on my research paper about municipal bonds.
i'm using municipal bonds as a dummy variable, 1 representing those provinces in the Philippines which issue municipal bonds and 0 for those that do not.
the catch here is that, i'm not sure on how to import the dummy variable in eviews. do in need to enter a code for eviews to recognize that the variable MB (municipal bonds) is a dummy variable, or eviews can automatically recognize it as one. Hope you can help me so that i can move on with my paper. Thank you very much!
