[Limdep Nlogit List] Simulation Scenario

[Muhammad Umair Khan]

Dear Bill,

Thank you very much for your reply. Can I also use the [+]1 scenario
command in case of dummy-coded variables? For example, I have a dummy-coded
variable, mild side-effects, coded as 0 (no side-effects) and 1 (mild
side-effects). Can I simulate a scenario "=[+]1 interpreting that there
would be one level increase in the severity of mild side-effects, that is,
the severity would increase from to mild to, let's say, moderate?

Thank you for your time.

Umair
