Abstract
When the criterion variable is defined on an ordinal scale, the typical analyses based on correlations or covariances are not appropriate. The methods described in Chapter 6 do not use the ordered nature of the data and, consequently, do not use all the information available. In this chapter, we present methodologies that take the ordinal property of the dependent variable into account.
