[R-sig-ME] mixed-effects ordinal logistic regression model

[Paul Buerkner]

Hi Ahmad,

if you want to fit this model in a frequentist framework, I recommend the
"ordinal" package. If you rather want to use a Bayesian framework, I
recommend "brms". For a tutorial paper about ordinal models also containing
R code for brms, see https://psyarxiv.com/x8swp/
