Fixed exchange is the dummy variable taking the value of 1 if the country has a fixed exchange regime (exchange arrangement with no separate legal tender or currency board) or alternatively is part of a monetary union.
Fiscal consolidation is the dummy variable which following Duval (2008)—takes the value of 1 if the country has experienced a change in the fiscal balance larger than +0.9 percentage points of GDP.
The dependent variable in the logistic regression analysis is the dummy variable (y), which is equal to 1 when a transcriptional protein is present and 0 otherwise.
Here, β0– β3 are fixed effects, the between-subject is a random effect, and D=1 (with α-enolase), 0 (without α-enolase) is the dummy variable.
Exposure time (Expt) was calculated as: Expt = ∫ Cp T dT / cpt [ 26] where Cp(T) is the concentration in arterial serum, and T is the dummy variable for time, dT is the apparent diffusion constant through brain tissue at 37°C.
Beyond this basic set of controls, the only characteristics included in specification 1 are the dummy variables that are required for a DiD analysis.
Let Z2= η1,η2) be the dummy variables indicating three age groups, where η1=1 if the age is in the range 1.5 4, η1=0, otherwise, and η2=1 if the age is in the range 5 9, η2=0, otherwise.
The OR associated with detection modality was calculated as where x1 is the detection modality, x2, …, x5 are the dummy variables for tumour size category, x6, …, x9 are the dummy variables for the detection modality-by-tumour size interaction, and x10 to x p are the other covariates.
For the logistic regression analyses, "the athlete has the symptom" was assigned the dummy variable "1," and the absence of the symptom was assigned "0".
An interesting corollary to these results is that the dummy variable associated with a tropical climate becomes statistically insignificant.
