Sample Code for Proc HP Logistic (SAS EG) for a Multinomial Case

[davis]

Good afternoon,

I have a quick question regarding the aforementioned subject, and was wondering if someone could lend a hand.

To no avail, I have been exploring proc HP Logistic (SAS EG) for a multinomial case, and unsure where I a making syntax errors.

If someone could share or point me to sample code that works for proc hplogistic for a multinomial case, it would be sincerely appreciated.

Thanks.

Is it significantly different from the ordinal case? I thought it was the same but the interpretations were different?
Here's the documentation example of ordinal:

If you're having syntax issues showing your code is usually helpful. If you can't for whatever reason, I suggest building on the example and using that to illustrate your issue.

"Multinomial" can mean ordered (ordinal) or unordered (nominal). If your response is ordinal, then the Cheese example in the HPLOGISTIC documentation shows how it is done... the syntax isn't different from the binary case. If the response is nominal, then you just need to add the LINK=GLOGIT option in the MODEL statement.
