Data about rankings

Hi there,

what are the options to analyse rankings data in JMP? Do they implement the PlackettLuce approach?

I would like to see the conditional ranking to other covariates.

 

Thank you

Joseph

 

Data TableRe: Data about rankings

A basic JMP design concept is that one has to define a data type for variables as a precursor to analysis. Some example data types are numeric, nominal, ordinal, text, multiple response, and more. So for rank data, ordinal is probably your best option. From there, then one typically is looking to either describe or explain something about the variables. These actions are supported by what are called 'analysis platforms' in JMP. Many, many JMP analysis platforms can work with ordinal data so the options for analysis are many and widespread. My initial suggestion is to peruse the JMP online documentation, perhaps searching for specific analytical methods. Here is a link to the online documentation 'home page':

Re: Data about rankings

Thank you for reply. 

I am aware of the basic aspects of JMP or statistics. What I was asking if there is the possibility of doing modeling with rank data in JMP? 

I have 4 options ranked one to four by respondents and I want to see the conditional probabilities of ranking, the optimal ranking and the distance metrics for rank data. I can't find anything of analysing rank data in the JMP manuals.

 

Thanks.
