Multiple Uses of Multiple Imputation - Continuing Education - Course
ASA, Section on Survey Research Methods
Instructor(s): Donald B. Rubin, Harvard University, Trivellore Raghunathan, University of Michigan
This full-day course provides an introduction to multiple imputation and a variety of settings where this approach can be used. Though the main emphasis will be on the multiple imputation approach for handling missing data, the course will also consider other situations where multiple imputation ideas can be used, such as measurement error, confidentiality and disclosure limitation, and general model diagnostics. Software for performing multiple imputation analysis will also be discussed. The prerequisite is knowledge of basic statistical concepts such as maximum likelihood estimation, linear and logistic regression, basic asymptotic theory, and survey sampling. The course is designed at a relatively advanced level, although the emphasis of the class will be on concepts and analysis rather than formulas or mathematical details. Topics include general issues in handling missing data, patterns and mechanisms of missing data, single and multiple imputation, theoretical motivation, and software for multiple imputation analysis, multiple imputation for important applications, including for the pharmaceutical industry and complex survey designs. This course is intended for the advanced statistics practitioner or teacher who wants an introduction to multiple imputation methodology and its applications. OPTIONAL TEXTBOOK AVAILABLE
