In orddata: Generation of Artificial Ordinal and Binary Data

Description

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

Usage

rmvord_naiv(n = 1, probs, Cor, showCor = 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	If TRUE 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.
