Dr. Harrell, Thanks for your response. The predictor variables I initially included in the model were based on the x mean plots and whether they exhibited ordinality and whether they appeared to meet the CR assumptions. Only 7 of 16 potential variables fit that designation and those are the variables I initially included. I then used backward variable selection, which selected 3 significant terms. Does that seem reasonable?
Also, are you saying that if the exceedence probabilites for the middle Y category have a wide range then keeping the model as is would be fine for future predictions?
