Hi everybody,
I am searching a procedure which helps me to estimate the networksize of respondents (count variable).
I want to compare the coefficients of three different studies.
Williams provided a solution for binary and ordinal dependent variables with his oglm-procedure (heterogeneous choice model). OLS regressors can be compared easyly - heteroscedasticity is not that problem.
But I do not find any for count outcomes.
Another connected problem in the same context is the "scale" of my dependent variables. In one study the networksize is restricted to a maximum of 3 (range 0-3). The other studies do not have any restriction. There empirical range is: 0-20 and 0 to 11 (some networkgenerators produces a range from 0 to 8).
Hopefully, anyone has a simple solution for this special problem!
Thanks!
Sebastian
