Hello All, I'm trying to run a multinomial probit on a dataset with 28 data points and five levels (0,1,2,3,4) in the latent choice involving response variable. I downloaded the latest mnp package to run the regression. It starts the calculation and then crashes the rpogram. I wish I could give the error message but it literally shuts down R without a warning. I'm using the R

Hi, I am a stata user trying to transition to R. Typically I compute marginal effects plots for (example) probit models by drawing simulated betas by using the coefficient/standard error estimates after I run a probit model. I then use these simulated betas to compute first difference marginal effects. My question is, can I do this in R? Specifically, I was wondering if anyone knows how R

If I wanted to fit a logit model and account for clustering of observations, I would do something like: library(Design) f <- lrm(Y1 ~ X1 + X2, x=TRUE, y=TRUE, data=d) g <- robcov(f, d$st.year) What would I do if I wanted to do the same thing with a probit model? ?robcov says the input model must come from the Design package, but the Design package appears not to do probit? Thanks very

Hello, I want to start testing using the MNP probit function in stead of the lrm function in my current experiment. I have one dependant label and two independent varaibles. The lrm is simple model <- lrm(label ~ val1 + val2) I tried the same thing with the mnp function and got an error that I don't understand model <- mnp(label ~ val1 + val2) I get back an immediate error that

You won't get mundane things like ordered probit off the shelf. (I will be very happy if someone will show

Hi, I have a problem with the ordered probit model -polr function (library MASS). My independent variables are countinuos. I am not able to understand two main points: a) how to calculate marginal effects b) how to calculate the relative importance of each independent variables If required i will attach my model output. Thanks Franco

What is the current state of the R-art for ordered probit models, and more esoterically is there any available R strategy for ordered cauchit models, i.e. ordered multinomial alternatives with a cauchy link function. MCMC is an option, obviously, but for a univariate latent variable model this seems to be overkill... standard mle methods should be preferable. (??) Googling reveals that spss

Hi! I was trying to implement a probit model on a dichotomous outcome variable and found that the predictions were outside the (0,1) interval that one should get. I later tried it with some simulated data with a similar result. Here is a toy program I wrote and I cant figure why I should be getting such odd predictions. x1<-rnorm(1000) x2<-rnorm(1000) x3<-rnorm(1000)

Hi - I am fitting a probit model using glm(), and the deviance and residual degrees of freedom are different depending on whether I use a binary response vector of length 80 or a two-column matrix response (10 rows) with the number of success and failures in each column. I would think that these would be just two different ways of specifying the same model, but this does not appear to be the case.

Hello all, I have a very simple set of data and I would like to analyze them with probit analysis. The data are: X Event Trial 100 8 8 75 8 8 50 6 8 25 4 8 10 2 8 0 0 8 I want to estimate the value of X that will give a 95% hit rate (Event/Trial) and the corresponding 95% CI. Anyone can offer some help? Thanks!! -

Dear All, I have been struggling to understand why for the housing data in MASS library R and stata give coef. estimates that are really different. I also tried to come up with many many examples myself (see below, of course I did not have the set.seed command included) and all of my `random' examples seem to give verry similar output. For the housing data, I have changed the data into numeric

Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE A similar question has been posted in the past but never answered. My question is this: for probit analysis, how do you program a 95% confidence interval for the LD50 (or LC50, ec50, etc.), including a heterogeneity factor as written about in "Probit Analysis" by Finney(1971)? The heterogeneity factor comes into play through the chi-squared

Hello, I'm working on the multiple categorical data (5-points scale) using linear mixed effect model and wondering if anyone knows about or works on the linear mixed effect model with ordered logit or probit link. I found that the "lmer" function in R is very flexible and supports various models, but not ordered logit/probit models. I may conduct my analysis by turning my DVs

Hi to all of you, I'm fitting an full factorial probit model from an experiment, and I've the independent variables as factors. The model is as follows: fit16<-glm(Sube ~ as.factor(CE)*as.factor(CEBO)*as.factor(Luz), family=binomial(link="probit"), data=experimento) but, when I took a look to the results I've obtained the following: glm(formula = Sube ~ CE * CEBO *

Dear All, I have some questions about probit regressions. I saw a nice introduction at http://bit.ly/bU9xL5 and I mainly have two questions. (1) The first is almost about data manipulation.

hi, people How can we compare two probit models brought out from the same data? Let me use the example used in "An Introduction to R". "Consider a small, artificial example, from Silvey (1970).
