Determinants of Life Satisfaction for Rural North Indians: Estimation Using Generalised Ordinal Logistic Regression

Ordinal logistic regression.

©FSRH J Fam Plann Reprod Health Care 2008: 34(3) What is it? When a response variable has only two possible values (e.g. recurrence/not), binary logistic regression is commonly used to test or model the association between that response and a number of potential explanatory variables, with each association estimated in terms of an odds ratio (OR). Multinomial logistic regression is an extension...

Multinomial and ordinal logistic regression using PROC LOGISTIC

Logistic regression may be useful when we are trying to model a categorical dependent variable (DV) as a function of one or more independent variables. This paper reviews the case when the DV has more than two levels, either ordered or not, gives and explains SAS R © code for these methods, and illustrates them with examples.

Ordinal logistic regression models: application in quality of life studies.

Quality of life has been increasingly emphasized in public health research in recent years. Typically, the results of quality of life are measured by means of ordinal scales. In these situations, specific statistical methods are necessary because procedures such as either dichotomization or misinformation on the distribution of the outcome variable may complicate the inferential process. Ordina...

Logistic Regression for Multivariate Longitudinal Ordinal Data

A composite logistic regression approach for ordinal panel data regression

We propose in this article a Composite Logistic Regression (CLR) approach for ordinal panel data regression. The new method transforms the original ordinal regression problem into a number of binary ones. Thereafter, the method of conditional logistic regression (Chamberlain, 1984; Wooldridge, 2001; Hsiao, 2003) can be directly applied. As a result, the new method allows the unobserved subject ...
