Multiple Imputation for Interval Estimation from Simple Random Samples with Ignorable Nonresponse
Abstract
Several multiple imputation techniques are described for simple random samples with ignorable nonresponse on a scalar outcome variable. The methods are compared using both analytic and Monte Carlo results concerning coverages of the resulting intervals for the population mean. Using m = 2 imputations per missing value gives accurate coverages in common cases and is clearly superior to single imputation (m = 1) in all cases. The performances of the methods for various m can be predicted well by linear interpolation in 1/(m — 1) between the results for m = 2 and m = ∞. As a rough guide, to assure coverages of interval estimates within 2% of the nominal level when using the preferred methods, the number of imputations per missing value should increase from 2 to 3 as the nonresponse rate increases from 10% to 60%.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
