The dependent variable is not part pf the calculation. However, I'm 
not sure if Lee Adkins' ame() function is set up to handle ordered 
probit. In an ordered model you have one or more "extra" coefficients 
("cut points") which do not correspond to members of the list of 
regressors, and I guess that could account for the mismatch here.

I suspect that one of Oleh Komashko's function packages can handle 
average marginal effects for ordered probit. Oleh?
