DUSTIN C. BROWN POPULATION RESEARCH CENTER Models for Ordered and Unordered Categorical Variables Objectives Introduce Models for multi-category outcomes Briefly discuss multinomial logit ( probit ) Models Briefly discuss ordinal logit ( probit ) Models Show examples in Stata Discuss practical issues, extensions, etc. Models for Multi-Category Outcomes These Models can be viewed as extensions of binary logit and binary probit regression. The dependent variable has three or more categories and is nominal or ordinal. Multinomial logit and Ordered logit Models are two of the most common Models .
Once again, the ordered logit (probit) model assumes that the distance between each category of the outcome is proportional. In practice, violating this assumption may or may not alter your substantive conclusions. You need to test whether this is the case. A Brant test can be used to test whether the proportional odds (i.e.,
