摘要

We propose a multinomial probit (MNP) model that is defined by a factor analysis model with covariates for analyzing unordered categorical data, and discuss its identification. Some useful MNP models are special cases of the proposed model. To obtain maximum likelihood estimates, we use the EM algorithm with its M-step greatly simplified under Conditional Maximization and its E-step made feasible by Monte Carlo simulation. Standard errors are calculated by inverting a Monte Carlo approximation of the information matrix using Louis’s method. The methodology is illustrated with a simulated data.
