one idea is to consider that the underlying (for ease normally distributed) latent variables that produce the Bernoulli trials are correlated with your original normal random variable.

I hope it helps.

Subject: [R] Generating a binomial random variable correlated with a normalrandom variable



Hi All:
I would like to generate a binomial random variable that correlates with a
normal random variables with a specified correlation. Off course, the
correlation coefficient would not be same at each run because of randomness.
I greatly appreciate your input.
Ashraf
