gFor a general discussion of aspects of heterogeneity in ordered choices and a detailed description of the generalized ordered probit model see Greene and Henscher [28].
Taken together, this led to the suggestion that the behaviour of dogs "may be described by a set of hierarchically ordered choice-rules and different combinations of these rules which can be used by the dog to make a decision in the problem situation.
A typical breakfast might be omelets made to order, choice of pork or turkey bacon, fresh squeezed juice (vegetable or fruit) or waffles with strawberries and cream.

For the Ordered Probit, antenatal visits are deemed to be in an ordered discrete choice form (1, 2, 3….4+).
The optimal order choice is such that ( {widehat{n}}_{mathsf{IC}}=mathrm{argmin}mathsf{I}mathsf{C}(n) ).
3) Invasive procedure to treat pain should be regarded as a second order choice, due to the inner risk of any invasive approach.
To avoid difficulties of polynomial order choice, we consider below a simplest case of mixed noise where SD and SI components are characterized by one parameter each.
