How to change reference category in ordered logistic regression
Posted: Thu Jan 25, 2018 1:32 pm
I have a variable with 5 levels.
Level 5 is now automatically taken as the reference category (that is: I get intercept_1 thru intercept_4), but I want level 1 to be the reference category (i.e., have intercept_2 thru intercept_5 estimated).
What code do I have to add to change that?
If this information is available in any documentation, I would be happy if you could point me to that info as well (So far, I have worked through the Zang et al. 2016 paper, the "translation" of chapter 13 about ordered logistic regression into R2mlwin and the LEMMA course material, although that doesn't include Rcode).
