Test for Discretized Normality in Ordinal Data

v0.2.2 · Jun 11, 2026 · GPL (>= 2)

Description

Tests whether multivariate ordinal data may stem from discretizing a multivariate normal distribution. The test is described by Foldnes and Grønneberg (2019) <doi:10.1080/10705511.2019.1673168>. In addition, an adjusted polychoric correlation estimator is provided that takes marginal knowledge into account, as described by Grønneberg and Foldnes (2022) <doi:10.1037/met0000495>.
