Abstract
A statistical model for ranks is presented, and some results on its parameter are discussed. In particular, maximum likelihood inference is developed, with and without covariates; thus, a statistical model for rank data is introduced in order to link the expressed ranks to the main features of the raters. Some empirical evidence from a marketing survey confirms the usefulness of the proposal in the study of the preferences.
