R packages do not solve modelling problems. They can be used to solve computational problems.
Wouldn't it be a better plan to sort out what kind of models you want to investigate to address your research questions first? Then, and only then, can you sensibly look around for packages that might help with the computational problems you have identified. -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Zhiyuan Jason ZHENG Sent: Tuesday, 5 October 2010 9:22 AM To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] Simultaneous equation with one ordinal reponses Dear R users, I had a research question which involves a simultaneous equation system, one is the common continuous dependent variable, y1, say wage, or log wage, another one is a latent variable, y*, which I only observe up to a ordinal scale, say attitudes toward a problem, taking values as y2= 1, 2, 3 or 4. Both of them have other exogeneious variables. I have been search on internet for quite a while trying to locate a package in R that can do the job. I am wondering whether anyone can help me and provide some info about what package can be used to solve this problem? Thanks so much.
