Hi all
I have been interpreting intercepts in the past without problems, but
now i'm facing a multiple regression analysis with columns like:
b
Woman: -6.6
Caucasian: 8.5
Experienced: 11.4
Intercept/constant B = 5.5
The numbers show the impact the three top variables have on a dependent
variable (salary). How am I supposed to interpret the intercept here?
