Regression and Ordered Categorical Variables
回归模型与有序分类变量
SUMMARY A general approach to regression modelling for ordered categorical response variables, y, is given, which is equally applicable to ordered and unordered y. The regressor variables xT = (x 1 ,…,xp) may be continuous or categorical. The method is based on the logistic family which contains a hierarchy of regression models, ranging from ordered to unordered models. Ordered properties of the former, the stereotype model, are established. The choice between models is made…
