Abstract
Ordered logistic regression is an extension of binary logistic regression, and is particularly well suited to the analysis of many psychiatric scores. Its use is demonstrated in a pair of linked cross‐sectional surveys of dementia in residents of old people's homes, first to model the association of dementia with demographic characteristics, and then to explore possible reasons for a rise in the prevalence of dementia in the homes over a four‐year period.Keywords
