Applied Ordinal Logistic Regression Using Stata
From Single-Level to Multilevel Modeling

  • Xing Liu - Eastern Connecticut State University


December 2015 | 552 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
The first book to provide a unified framework for both single-level and multilevel modeling of ordinal categorical data, Applied Ordinal Logistic Regression Using Stata helps readers learn how to conduct analyses, interpret the results from Stata output, and present those results in scholarly writing. Using step-by-step instructions, this non-technical, applied book leads students, applied researchers, and practitioners to a deeper understanding of statistical concepts by closely connecting the underlying theories of models with the application of real-world data using statistical software. 

An open-access website for the book at https://study.sagepub.com/liu-aolr contains data sets, Stata code, and answers to in-text questions.

Available with Perusall—an eBook that makes it easier to prepare for class
Perusall is an award-winning eBook platform featuring social annotation tools that allow students and instructors to collaboratively mark up and discuss their SAGE textbook. Backed by research and supported by technological innovations developed at Harvard University, this process of learning through collaborative annotation keeps your students engaged and makes teaching easier and more effective. Learn more.

Answers to In-Text Questions

In this book, Xing Liu offers a well-crafted book focused on the application of ordinal response models across fields. Readers will be equipped to competently handle a variety of statistical techniques from basic correlations to more advanced generalized ordered logistic regression models. This is an excellent resource for both new consumers of these statistical applications to seasoned veterans working on more complex issues related to ordinal response models.

Logistic regression can be difficult to understand. Without a book explaining the test in a plain and easy-to-understand matter, learners will feel lost and get frustrated. However, Applied Ordinal Logistic Regression Using Stata explains the concept clearly and provides practical codes and output.  Learners will find this book approachable and easy to follow.

SAGE Research Methods is a research methods tool created to help researchers, faculty and students with their research projects. SAGE Research Methods links over 175,000 pages of SAGE’s renowned book, journal and reference content with truly advanced search and discovery tools. Researchers can explore methods concepts to help them design research projects, understand particular methods or identify a new method, conduct their research, and write up their findings. Since SAGE Research Methods focuses on methodology rather than disciplines, it can be used across the social sciences, health sciences, and more.

With SAGE Research Methods, researchers can explore their chosen method across the depth and breadth of content, expanding or refining their search as needed; read online, print, or email full-text content; utilize suggested related methods and links to related authors from SAGE Research Methods' robust library and unique features; and even share their own collections of content through Methods Lists. SAGE Research Methods contains content from over 720 books, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and handbooks, the entire “Little Green Book,” and "Little Blue Book” series, two Major Works collating a selection of journal articles, and specially commissioned videos.
