I am learning R via a textbook that performs analysis with SPSS and SAS. In trying to reproduce the results for an ordinal logit model, I get very similar point estimates for my cut-off points, but the parameters for the covariate q60 do not match. The estimate for q51 also matches. Is this because I need to change a base case for the ordered covariate q60? Can this be done in or is it always the first case?
mod<-polr(as.ordered(q43j)~as.ordered(q60)+q51, method="logistic") Perhaps a book using R would be a better idea, but it's the content and price (free) of this book that I like. Thanks a lot, Ben [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
