Please provide complete references. Rory Wolfe's command -ocratio-
uses a "forward stopping" continuation ratio model, P[Y=j|Y>=j] (i.e.,
like "Armstrong and Sloan" below), but with reverse sign of the slope
compared with logistic regression on expanded data so that the sign of
the slope is the same as in the usual proportional odds model.
