Table 1. Comparisons of outcome categories for each equation in ordinal logistic regression model.

Equations Pooled categories Versus Pooled categories R code for computing probability
1 0 1, 2, 3 plogis(x)
2 0, 1 2, 3 plogis(x-mod.ord$coef[1]+mod.ord$coef[2])
3 0, 1, 2 3 plogis(x-mod.ord$coef[1]+mod.ord$coef[3])

Each equation models the odds of being in the set of categories on the left versus the set of categories on the right. x is the linear predictor of the ordinal regression model.
