This paper focuses on studying the relationships among a set of categorical (ordinal) variables collected in a contingency table. Besides the marginal and conditional (in)dependencies, thoroughly analyzed in the literature, we consider the context-specific independencies holding only in a subspace of the outcome space of the conditioning variables. To this purpose we consider the hierarchical multinomial marginal models and we provide several original results about the representation of context-specific independencies through these models. The theoretical results are supported by an application concerning the innovation degree of Italian enterprises.
