An extension of the Bradley-Terry-Luce model is presented which allows for an ordered response characterizing the strength of preference. The generalization includes models with ties as special cases. The model is derived from assumptions on underlying random utility functions. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of scale values are given in a representation theorem and the uniqueness of the scale is considered. Estimation of parameters, goodness of fit tests, and tests of linear hypotheses are treated in the framework of a weighted least- squares method.
