CUB (version 0.1)

inigrid: Grid-based preliminary parameter estimates for CUB models

Description

Compute the log-likelihood function of a CUB model with parameter vector $(\pi, \xi)$ ranging in the Cartesian product between $x$ and $y$, for a given absolute frequency distribution.

Usage

inigrid(m, freq, x, y)

Arguments

m

Number of ordinal categories

freq

Vector of length $m$ of the absolute frequency distribution

x

A set of values to assign to the uncertainty parameter $\pi$

y

A set of values to assign to the feeling parameter $\xi$

Value

It returns the parameter vector corresponding to the maximum value of the log-likelihood for a CUB model fitting ordinal responses with given frequencies.
