Log-Link Regression Models for Ordinal Responses
The adjacent-categories, continuation-ratio and proportional odds logit-link regression models provide useful extensions of the multinomial logistic model to ordinal response data. We propose fitting these models with a logarithmic link to allow estimation of different forms of the risk ratio. Each of the resulting ordinal response log-link models is a constrained version of the log multinomial...
متن کاملBayesian Model Choice in Cumulative Link Ordinal Regression Models
The use of the proportional odds (PO) model for ordinal regression is ubiquitous in the literature. If the assumption of parallel lines does not hold for the data, then an alternative is to specify a non-proportional odds (NPO) model, where the regression parameters are allowed to vary depending on the level of the response. However, it is often difficult to fit these models, and challenges reg...
متن کاملScaled Link Functions for Heterogeneous Ordinal Response Data
This paper describes a class ordinal regression models in which the link function has scale parameters that may be estimated along with the regression parameters. One motivation is to provide a plausible model for group level categorical responses. In this case a natural class of scaled link functions is obtained by treating the group level responses as threshold averages of possible correlated...
متن کاملRobust Ordinal Regression
Making any type of decision, from buying a car to siting a nuclear plant, from choosing the best student deserving a scholarship to ranking the cities of the world according to their liveability, involves the evaluation of several alternatives with respect to different aspects, technically called evaluation criteria. Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding (MCDA) (see [13, 14]) provides methodologies...
متن کاملStereotype Ordinal Regression
There are a number of reasonable approaches to analysing an ordinal outcome variable. One common approach, known as the Proportional Odds (PO) Model, is implemented in Stata as ologit. If the assumptions of the PO model are not satisfied, an alternative is to treat the outcome as categorical, rather than ordinal, and use multinomial logistic regression (mlogit) in Stata. This insert describes a...
