In rating surveys, people are requested to evaluate objects, items, services, and so on, by choosing among a list of ordered categories. In some circumstances, it may happen that a subset of respondents selects a specific option just to simplify a more demanding choice. In this context, we generalize a class of ordinal data models (called cub and proven effective for fitting and interpretation), for taking the possible presence of a shelter choice into account. After the discussion of interpretative and inferential issues, the usefulness of the approach is checked against real case studies and by means of a simulation experiment. Some final remarks end the paper.
