Many medical and epidemiologic studies incorporate an ordinal response variable. In some cases an ordinal responseYrepresents levels of a standard measurement scale such as severity of pain (none, mild, moderate, severe). In other cases, ordinal responses are constructed by specifying a hierarchy of separate endpoints. For example, clinicians may specify an ordering of the severity of several component events and assign patients to the worst event present from among none, heart attack, disabling stroke, and death. Still another use of ordinal response methods is the application of rank-based methods to continuous responses so as to obtain robust inferences. For example, the proportional odds model described later allows for a continuousYand is really a generalization of the Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney rank test. Thus the semiparametric proportional odds model is a direct competitor of ordinary linear models.
