Title

[R] oprobit -- Ordered probit regression

Syntax

oprobit depvar [indepvars] [if] [in] [weight] [, options]

options description ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Model offset(varname) include varname in model with coefficient constrained to 1 constraints(constraints) apply specified linear constraints collinear keep collinear variables

SE/Robust vce(vcetype) vcetype may be oim, robust, cluster clustvar, bootstrap, or jackknife

Reporting level(#) set confidence level; default is level(95) nocnsreport do not display constraints display_options control spacing and display of omitted variables and base and empty cells

Maximization maximize_options control the maximization process; seldom used

+ coeflegend display coefficients' legend instead of coefficient table ------------------------------------------------------------------------- + coeflegend does not appear in the dialog box. indepvars may contain factor variables; see fvvarlist. depvar and indepvars may contain time-series operators; see tsvarlist. bootstrap, by, fracpoly, jackknife, mfp, mi estimate, nestreg, rolling, statsby, stepwise, and svy are allowed; see prefix. vce(bootstrap) and vce(jackknife) are not allowed with the mi estimate prefix. Weights are not allowed with the bootstrap prefix. vce() and weights are not allowed with the svy prefix. fweights, iweights, and pweights are allowed; see weight. See [R] oprobit postestimation for features available after estimation.

Description

oprobit fits ordered probit models of ordinal variable depvar on the independent variables indepvars. The actual values taken on by the dependent variable are irrelevant, except that larger values are assumed to correspond to "higher" outcomes.

See logistic estimation commands for a list of related estimation commands.

Options

+-------+ ----+ Model +------------------------------------------------------------

offset(varname), constraints(constraints), collinear; see [R] estimation options.

+-----------+ ----+ SE/Robust +--------------------------------------------------------

vce(vcetype) specifies the type of standard error reported, which includes types that are derived from asymptotic theory, that are robust to some kinds of misspecification, that allow for intragroup correlation, and that use bootstrap or jackknife methods; see [R] vce_option.

+-----------+ ----+ Reporting +--------------------------------------------------------

level(#); see [R] estimation options.

nocnsreport; see [R] estimation options.

display_options: noomitted, vsquish, noemptycells, baselevels, allbaselevels; see [R] estimation options.

+--------------+ ----+ Maximization +-----------------------------------------------------

maximize_options: difficult, technique(algorithm_spec), iterate(#), [no]log, trace, gradient, showstep, hessian, showtolerance, tolerance(#), ltolerance(#), nrtolerance(#), nonrtolerance, from(init_specs); see [R] maximize. These options are seldom used.

The following option is available with oprobit but is not shown in the dialog box:

coeflegend; see [R] estimation options.
