What is the difference between class and source variables?

0

You will notice that most, if not all, of the variables listed as source variables are also listed as class variables. To make the class variables, WesVar has taken all of the source variables, which are all of the variables in your data set that you put in the variables column when you imported your data, and made dummy variables out of them. The only exception to this is for variables that have 256 or more distinct values; those variables are found only in the source variables box and were not dummy coded. When selecting the dependent variable for any type of regression analysis, you will want to select the variable from the source variables box. For the independent variables, you can select the variable from either the source or the class variables box, depending on how you want WesVar to treat the variable in your model.
