Can age be a dummy variable?

10 August 2022 1 2K Report

I have three different models for regression. For the two models, I have used age as continuous (no dummy), then for the other model I have used age as a dummy variable. The reason is that I want many significant variables in the model.

What on earth do you mean by "age as a dummy variable"? Alive or dead?

Why would you do that if you have the real age? It makes no sense at all to me.
