Standard errors questionable.
Prob > chi2 = 0.2580 indicates that the regression coefficient for ethnic is not significantly different from 0, but what does P>|z| = 0.015 for 'Not disclosed' mean?
Is it that overall there is no effect of ethnic but 'Not disclosed' is significantly different from 'White'?
Or am I completely misinterpreting the output?
Thank you.
