The first column gives the dimension being estimated. The second column is simply an integer counter. In the third column,

The fourth column is the cumulative CPU time and the fifth column is the CPU time of the current phase. The sixth column is the log-likelihood and the seventh column is the geometric mean probability. In the BETA/WEIGHT phases, the eighth column is the Pearson r-square between the previous and current set of estimates for ALL parameters, the the ninth column is the estimated BETA, and the tenth column is the estimated weight. Only BETA is estimated during the overall first dimension estimation. Because the Legislators are scaled to lie in the [-1, +1] interval, the legislator coordinates are adjusted at the end of the legislator phase and this adjustment is compensated for by adjusting the WEIGHT parameter so that the overall log-likelihood is unchanged.
