Dear all, I got this message, while using the polr function in MASS
>EQ<-as.formula("dep~fpta+tcdv+cdta+cmta+prcd+patc+lactifs+excta") > Estim<-polr(EQ,don, subset=(cote!=0),method="probit",na.action=na.omit) Error in polr(EQ, don, subset = (cote != 0), method = "probit", na.action = na.omit) : attempt for find suitable starting values failed In addition: Warning messages: 1: algorithm did not converge in: glm.fit(X, y1, wt, family = binomial("probit"), offset = offset) 2: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred in: glm.fit(X, y1, wt, family = binomial("probit"), offset = offset) how can I initialise starting values ?
