title: 'robcat: Robust Categorical Data Analysis'
version: '0.2'
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.robcat
abstract: Robust categorical data analysis based on the theory of C-estimation developed
  in Welz (2024) <https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2403.11954>. For now, the package
  only implements robust estimation of polychoric correlation as proposed in Welz,
  Mair and Alfons (2026) <https://doi.org/10.1017/psy.2025.10066> and robust estimation
  of polyserial correlation (Welz, 2026 <https://doi.org/10.1017/psy.2026.10091>)
  with methods for printing and plotting. We will implement further models in future
  releases. In addition, the package is still experimental, so input arguments and
  class structure may change in future releases.
