Is it Possible to Express an Unordered Multinomial Choice Using a Threshold-crossing Model?
Suppose we have three alternatives $\{A,\;B,\;C\}$ where the elements do not have order.
Then, we commonly use the following definition of the choice probability:

Models for ordinal variables: Differences between cumulative logit and adjacent-categories logit?
I read in Agresti about two regression models for ordinal variables. The cumulative logit:
$\text{logit}[P(Y \leq j)] = \alpha_i + \beta X$
(which is equivalent to a thresholded Gaussian distribution)
