I am wondering that for indicator outcomes (0/1 variables), say, in
logistic regression models, 0 is selected as the reference, not the last value 1. In Mplus, is 0/1 outcomes are treated in different way, comparing with other categorical y-variables? (My Mplus version is 5.0.)

With logistic regression and a binary outcome, the first category, u=0, is the reference category in Mplus.
