Jul 28, 2010 at 23:06 comment added Justin Bozonier Thanks guys! TONS O' INFO. :D So then what I'm doing now isn't exactly logistic regression and is instead proportional odds logistic regression?
Jul 28, 2010 at 19:42 comment added JoFrhwld Agreed. I just answered in terms of the question, which was about logistic regression. I've fit proportional odds logistic regressions for ordered data like this in R using MASS:polr.
Jul 28, 2010 at 19:23 comment added russellpierce I'd argue from a standpoint of trying to create good guess as to what video game a person likes coding 1s and 0s for like and didn't like isn't a good approach. A scale of 1-5 or 1-7 is quite easy to elicit and will require fewer datapoints to generate a good model (because each data point provides more information). With caveats about treating ordinal data as interval data of course applying, but probably not really that important in this context.
