Abstract: Abstract This chapter is about the analysis of data in which the response and explanatory variables are all categorical, i.e. they are measured on nominal or possibly ordinal scales. Each scale may have more than two categories. Unlike the methods described in previous chapters, generalized linear models for categorical data can readily be defined when there is more than one response variable. The observations consist ofcounts ox frequencies in the cells of a contingency table formed by the cross-classification of response and explanatory variables.
