For answering your question, I found the help resources of Stata.com in http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?mlogit.
In that webpage, you can find the correct command of basecategory such as "baseoutcome(#), base(#) or b(#)", not "basecategory(#)".
However you didn't make a categical variable before using mlogit, I think.
Because you said "... 但是无法指定对照组."
In the mgolit command of Stata,the default is to choose the most frequent outcome.
For example, if "q" of your dependent variable is composed of 5 high income groups(=1), 4 middle income group(=2) and 10 low income group(=3),the base outcome is automatically 3, that is low income group, and also you just do mlogit without base(#).
When you want to change the base outcome or group for additional analysis, you must use the command of bsae(#).
So you must check whether your dependent variable "q" is correct and then do mlogit.
I hope you enjoy Stata's wonderful world.
