effecush

Compute the opposite of the loglikelihood function for CUSH models
with covariates to explain the shelter effect.

internal

For ordinal rating data, estimate and test models within the family of CUB models and their extensions (where CUB stands for Combination of a discrete Uniform and a shifted Binomial distributions); Simulation routines, plotting facilities and fitting measures are also provided.
