This is the repository for the `ordbetareg` package, which can be used to fit the ordered beta regression model as specified in Kubinec (2022) (see paper https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/2sx6y/). This package is [on CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ordbetareg/index.html), but to use the development version, use this install command (requires the `remotes` package to be installed first):

```
remotes::install_github("saudiwin/ordbetareg_pack",build_vignettes=TRUE,dependencies = TRUE)
```

To learn more about beta regression modeling and where this package fits in, you can read [my blog post on the topic](https://www.robertkubinec.com/post/limited_dvs/). To learn how to use the package, see the introduction vignette by using the `vignette("package_introduction", package="ordbetareg")` command at the R console or viewing the [vignette on CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ordbetareg/vignettes/package_introduction.html).

If you use the package, please cite it as:
