Abstract

In this paper, an extension of a recent monotonic dependence coefficient (MDC) has been introduced in order to deal with an ordinal dependent and a continuous independent variable. Through our proposal, the ordinal dependent variable, expressed according to subjective categories based on the Likert scale, is transformed into a variable which is measurable on a continuous scale.
