Just to be sure, the material you are referring to is provided by Richard
Williams, Maarten probably pointed you to it.

Betreff: Re: st: statistical significance of cut points in ordered logit


Statalists,
I got the material http://www.nd.edu/~rwilliam/xsoc63993/l91.pdf provided by
Maarten, which is helpful. Thank you!
After typing the following in the Stata, I found some obersavtions were
suprising to me(see table A). In table A, For example,xb[1] is obviously
bigger than the coefficient of cut1,so the value for Y should equal 2.
However, from the values for pr1 pr2 pr3, the value for pr1 is the biggest,
which means the most likely outcome for Y is 1. Why not consistent?  The
doubt with other observations in table A is the same. 
Additionally, what does the statistical significance of cut points in
ordered logit mean, which has not been answered in the posting before? I
found there are no z or P>|z| for cut points, though I could get it.
