Abstract
Abstract We consider a general type of model for analyzing ordinal variables with covariate effects and 2 approaches for analyzing data for such models, the item response theory (IRT) approach and the PRELIS-LISREL (PLA) approach. We compare these 2 approaches on the basis of 2 examples, 1 involving only covariate effects directly on the ordinal variables and 1 involving covariate effects on the latent variables in addition.

Four approaches to factor analysis of ordinal variables which take proper account of Ordinality are described and three of them are compared with respect to parameter estimates and fit and the issue of how to test the model and to measure model fit is discussed.

A latent variable model for mixed discrete and continuous outcomes for birth defects data is proposed and an EM algorithm is proposed for parameter estimation and estimates of the latent variables are produced as a by‐product of the analysis.

A unified maximum likelihood method for estimating the parameters of the generalized latent trait model will be presented and in addition the scoring of individuals on the latent dimensions is discussed.

Previous work on a general class of multidimensional latent variable models for analysing ordinal manifest variables is extended here to allow for direct covariate effects on the manifest ordinal variables and covariates on the latent variables.

This chapter proposes an alternative procedure that can be performed using only a single estimate of the item parameters, based on the Lagrange multiplier test or the equivalent Rao efficient score test, and is generalized in various directions.
