J The number of categories of the nominal response. m The number of subpopulations. X A m × p A matrix with vectorelement x A i , the observed values at the i th subpopulation, determined by the independent variables specified in the command. X m × p matrix with vectorelement x i , the observed values of the location model’s independent variables at the i th subpopulation. f ijs The frequency weight for the sth observation which belongs to the cell corresponding to Y=j at subpopulation i . n ij The sum of frequency weights of the observations that belong to the cell corresponding to Y=j at subpopulation i . N The sum of all n ij ’s. π ij The cell probability corresponding to Y=j at subpopulation i . log ( π ij / π ik ) The logit of response category j to response category k. β j = ( β j 1 , ... , β jp ) ´ p ×1 vector of unknown parameters in the jth logit (i.e., logit of response category j to response category J). p Number of parameters in each logit. p≥1. p nr j Number of nonredundant parameters in logit j after maximum likelihood estimation. p p nr j ≥0. p nr The total number of nonredundant parameters after maximum likelihood estimation. p nr = Σ J −1 j =1 p nr j . B = ( β ´ 1 , ... , β ´ J −1 ) ' ( J −1 ) p ×1 vector of unknown parameters in the model. = ( ´ 1 ,..., ´ J −1 ) ´ The maximum likelihood estimate of B. ij The maximum likelihood estimate of π ij © Copyright IBM Corporation 1989, 2012.
