I'm currently exploring the possibility of using a transition model to analyze my ordinal longitudinal data, as an alternative to both marginal models and random-effects models. I'm specifically interested in finding SAS tutorial (papers) that cover this topic. While I'm aware of the tutorial available for binary data (https://support.sas.com/kb/24/494.html), I'm wondering if there are similar resources available for ordinal data analysis.
See here :
Usage Note 22871: Types of logistic (or logit) models that can be fit using SAS®
https://support.sas.com/kb/22/871.html
--> In the paragraph on "Transition models for discrete state space stochastic processes", it is said that :
Discrete time Markov chains can be represented as log-linear models.
So I would google the internet with search terms :
Here's an example for a log-linear model on count data :
SAS/STAT User's Guide
The GENMOD Procedure
Example 51.7 Log-Linear Model for Count Data
https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/9.4_3.5/statug/statug_genmod_examples07.htm
Most of the info you will find is using PROC GENMOD but ...
PROC CATMOD (for categorical data modeling) can also be used for log-linear modeling.

ANOVA, or Analysis Of Variance, is used to compare the averages or means of two or more populations to better understand how they differ. Watch this tutorial for more.
