In orddata: Generation of Artificial Ordinal and Binary Data

Description

Creates correlated multivariate ordinal random variables by thresholding a normal distribution.

Usage

rmvord(n = 1, probs, Cor, showCor_norm = TRUE)

Arguments

n	Number of Observations
probs	List of probabilities for the variables, length of probability equals number of items, length of list equals number of variables
Cor	Correlation matrix
showCor_norm	If TRUE analytical correlation matrix is printed.

Details

An analytical method was used to transform the correlation matrix.

Value

Returns n observations with given marginal probabilities probs and correlation structure Cor.
