Hello,



currently I am estimating an ordered probit model with the function polr
(MASS package).

Is there a simple way to obtain values for the prediction of the index
function ($X*\hat{\beta}$)?

(E..g. in the GLM function there is the linear.prediction value for this
purpose).

Read the help page:

"There are methods for the standard model-fitting functions, including predict, ...."



If not, is there another function / package where this feature is
implemented?

Even though polr has predict, you can also get a proportional odds model in the rms package (and I would not be surprised if a search turned up more options.

Thank you very much for your answer in advance!
