Hello all,

In my research project, I have a number of categorical predictors(cat1
cat2 cat3 cat4 ) and continuous predictors(con1 con2 con3 con4) and
during initial uni-variate analysis,  I am using two step process to
evaluate for statistical significance.My code is a follows

I use stata 12

*********************MY CODE ********************
foreach x of varlist cat1 cat2 cat3 cat4{
logit outcome i.`x'
}

foreach x of varlist con1 con2 con3 con4{
logit outcome `x'
}
********************************************************
Question:

Is it possible to achieve this is one step i.e., use continuous and
predictors as a single varlist but perform logistic regression still
respecting the fact that  some are categorical variables and some are
continuous variables

--
Thank you  in advance for your time and consideration,
Yours Sincerely,
Mike.
