Regression Models with Ordered Categorical Outcomes
- 26 April 2023
Like many areas of statistics the language of survey data comes with an overloaded vocabulary. When discussing survey design you will often hear about the contrast between design based and model based approaches to (i) sampling strategies and (ii) statistical inference on the associated data. We won’t wade into the details about different sample strategies such as: simple random sampling, cluster random sampling or stratified random sampling using population weighting schemes. The literature on each of these is vast, but in this notebook we’ll talk about when any why it’s useful to apply model driven statistical inference to Likert scaled survey response data and other kinds of ordered categorical data.
