Weighting Imputation for Categorical Data
LVQ (Learning Vector Quantization) has been used to impute missing group membership and stratum weights in confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) model with continuous indicators (Chen, Tsai, & Yang, 2010; Tsai & Yang, 2012). Currently, categorical questionnaires (e.g., Binary and Likert-type items) are widely used in education, business, economy, and psychology tests as well as international large...
متن کاملA nonparametric multiple imputation approach for missing categorical data
BACKGROUND Incomplete categorical variables with more than two categories are common in public health data. However, most of the existing missing-data methods do not use the information from nonresponse (missingness) probabilities. METHODS We propose a nearest-neighbour multiple imputation approach to impute a missing at random categorical outcome and to estimate the proportion of each catego...
متن کاملA SAS Macro for Applying Multiple Imputation to Multilevel Data
Single-level multiple imputation procedures (e.g., PROC MI) are not appropriate for multilevel data sets where observations are nested within clusters. Analyzing multilevel data imputed with a single-level procedure yields variance estimates that are biased toward zero and may yield other biased parameters. Given the prevalence of clustered data (e.g., children within schools; employees within ...
متن کاملA Fully Conditional Specification Approach to Multilevel Imputation of Categorical and Continuous Variables.
Specialized imputation routines for multilevel data are widely available in software packages, but these methods are generally not equipped to handle a wide range of complexities that are typical of behavioral science data. In particular, existing imputation schemes differ in their ability to handle random slopes, categorical variables, differential relations at Level-1 and Level-2, and incompl...
متن کاملMultiple imputation for interval censored data with auxiliary variables.
We propose a non-parametric multiple imputation scheme, NPMLE imputation, for the analysis of interval censored survival data. Features of the method are that it converts interval-censored data problems to complete data or right censored data problems to which many standard approaches can be used, and that measures of uncertainty are easily obtained. In addition to the event time of primary int...
