Largely ignored in these discussions are methods for ordinal variables that are natural extensions of probit and logit models for dichotomous variables. If ordinal variables are discrete realizations of unmeasured conti...

متن کاملRegression for ordinal variables without underlying continuous variables
Several techniques exist nowadays for continuous (i.e. numerical) data analysis and modeling. However, although part of the information gathered by companies, statistical offices and other institutions is numerical, a large part of it is represented using categorical variables in ordinal or nominal scales. Techniques for model building on categorical data are required to take advantage of such ...
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...
