Assessing copula models for mixed continuous-ordinal variables [PDF]
Vine pair-copula constructions exist for a mix of continuous and ordinal variables. In some steps, this can involve estimating a bivariate copula for a pair of mixed continuous-ordinal variables.

The analysis of factor structures is one of the most critical psychometric applications. Frequently, variables (i.e., items or indicators) resulting from questionnaires using ordinal items with 2–7 categories are used.

A Regression Discontinuity Design for Ordinal Running Variables: Evaluating Central Bank Purchases of Corporate Bonds [PDF]
Regression discontinuity (RD) is a widely used quasi-experimental design for causal inference. In the standard RD, the assignment to treatment is determined by a continuous pretreatment variable (i.e., running variable) falling above or below a pre-fixed

Bayesian Analysis of the Ordinal Markov Random Field [PDF]
Multivariate analysis using graphical models is rapidly gaining ground in psychology. In particular, Markov random field (MRF) graphical models have become popular because their graph structure reflects the conditional associations between psychological ...

Statistical Analysis of Ordinal Response Variable: A Comparative Study [PDF]
Response variables in biological phenomena vary between three types: numerical response variables, ordinal categorical response variables, and nominal categorical response variables. In statistical studies, handling ordinal variables varies in accordance

Bivariate Distributions Underlying Responses to Ordinal Variables
The association between two ordinal variables can be expressed with a polychoric correlation coefficient. This coefficient is conventionally based on the assumption that responses to ordinal variables are generated by two underlying continuous latent ...

Ordinal data are a common case in applied statistics. In order to incorporate the ordinal scale level, among other things, regularization techniques are often suggested in the literature (Tutz & Gertheiss, 2014, 2016).
