varcovcubp0(m, ordinal, Y, bet, csi)

Arguments

m

Number of ordinal categories

ordinal

Vector of ordinal responses

Y

Matrix of covariates for explaining the uncertainty parameter

bet

Vector of parameters for the uncertainty component, whose length equals NCOL(Y)+1 to include an intercept term (first entry)

csi

The function checks if the variance-covariance matrix is positive-definite: if not, it returns a warning message and produces a matrix with NA entries.
