Hi!
I know that results from regular -oaxaca- depend on the omitted base category for categorical variables, so it is recommended to use the normalize option.
Say for example, I have a predictor variable Religion that has 3 groups (religion2_1-religion2_3).
The detailed results will contain ALL religion categories, as opposed to regular regression with only 2 (k-1). How do I interpret the decomposition results for all the dummy variables?
. oaxaca contra_modern normalize(religion2_*), logit by(dhsyr) svy(,subpop(include_teen)) pooled swap detail
(normalized: religion2_1 religion2_2 religion2_3)
Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition
Number of strata = 116 Number of obs = 41,013
Number of PSUs = 2,024 Population size = 40,980.468
Design df = 1,908
Model = logit
Group 1: dhsyr = 1 N of obs 1 = 526
Group 2: dhsyr = 0 N of obs 2 = 379
