Probit Regression and Response Models (Statistical Associates Blue Book Series 38)

Probit regression is method of working with categorical dependent variables whose underlying distribution is assumed to be normal. That is, the assumptions of probit regression are consistent with having a dichotomous dependent variable whose distribution is assumed to be a proxy for a true underlying continuous normal distribution. Probit regression has been extended to cover multinomial dependent variables (more than two nominal categories) and to cover ordinal categorical dependent variables.

Probit regression is an umbrella term meaning different things in different contexts, though the common denominator is treating categorical dependent variables assumed to have an underlying normal distribution. This volume discusses ordinal probit regression, probit signal-response models, probit response models, and multilevel probit regression.
