Hello everybody! I want to run a regression for my NPS with other variables as CSAT(numeric) and another variable but is a categorical variable. Someone told me something about creating dummy variables to run this analysis taking all the variables as numerical. Does someone know how to do this? Thanks!! :#

The lower left hand corner of the screen should have a 'Create or Clean Variable' option. I believe this can accomplish what you are looking for.

Where are you running the analysis and what sort of conversion needs to occur? The recode values are always numerical. Shouldn't you just be able to use that variable for your categorical answers?
