Estimates ordered probit switching regression (OPSR) models - a Heckman type selection model with an ordinal selection and continuous outcomes. Different model specifications are allowed for each treatment/regime.

OPSR
can be used whenever the ordinal treatment is not assigned exogenously but self-selected and one is interested in the treatment effect on a continuous outcome. The motivating example is telework frequency (conceptually, the treatment) and vehicle miles driven (the outcome of interest). We assume that two distinct processes lead people to choose a certain telework frequency and how mobile they are. Further and most importantly, the possibility of selection on unobservables exists. I.e., unobserved factors (as part of the errors of the two processes) might influence both the ordinal and continuous outcome. This leads to error correlation which needs to be accounted for in the modeling effort in spirit of Heckman.
