 "the data also are not normally distributed,"

There is no assumption that the *data*** are normally distributed.

For uses of the general linear model (regression, anova, correlations, etc.,
etc.) it is desirable that the *residuals * (aka errors in fit) are not very
discrepant form normally distributed.

Check to see whether CATREG handles repeated measures.
Since CATREG has actual tests of whether there is a better fit with ordinal
vs continuous assumptions it may be a way to look at your data.
