st: Test for J or U shaped curve of mean in ordered categories

I have data that consists of means of a continuous variable in ordered
categories.
How would I test for a J or U shaped pattern in the means?
For testing for a linear trend, I would model the ordinal variable as
a continuous variable in a regression, but that isn't appropriate
here.
Thankyou
Karin
