Hi all,

I have a complex sample design survey (svy), and would like to use an
ordinal regression.  Does anyone know how to test the assumption of
proportional odds that is made with ordinal regression if I also have a
complex sample design.  Without complex sample design, it seems easy
enough to use the brant test, but this doesn't seem to work after
ordinal regression in svy.  Any suggestions?
There are various ways to do this with gologit2, which can be downloaded from SSC. gologit2 also lets you estimate partial proportional odds models, which can produce more parsimonious models. Example:

. webuse nhanes2f

. gologit2 health female black, svy

Generalized Ordered Logit Estimates

Number of strata = 31 Number of obs = 10335
Number of PSUs = 62 Population size = 116997257
Design df = 31
F( 8, 24) = 27.06
Prob > F = 0.0000

The proportional odds assumption is violated in this case (but only for the female variable, not black).
