1 A Comparison of Approximate Bayesian Bootstrap and Weighted Sequential Hot Deck for Multiple Imputation Darryl V. Creel RTI International 1 RTI International is a trade name of Research Triangle Institute.
2 Why do this presentation? Better Understand Performance of Weighted Sequential Hot Deck Alone and in Comparison with Approximate Bayesian Bootstrap Using the Multiple Imputation Variance Estimator (Rubin 1987) Address Andridge and Little (2010) Comment: The weighted sequential hot deck does not appear to have been widely implemented. Graphical Presentation of Monte Carlo Results (which may more easily interpretable than a numeric table) 2
3 Outline Missing Data Approximate Bayesian Bootstrap Weighted Sequential Hot Deck Monte Carlo Simulation Results 3
4 Missing Data What to do about missing data? Ignore (generally a bad idea) Weight (unit nonresponse) Impute (item nonresponse) Multiple Imputation (Rubin, 1987) V = W + M + 1 M B 4
5 Approximate Bayesian Bootstrap Approximate Bayesian Bootstrap (Rubin and Schenker, 1986) Let r be the Number of Respondents Let m be the Number of Nonrespondents Procedure within an imputation class Select r Units With Replacement from the Respondents to Create the Donor Pool (Potential Donors) Select m Units With Replacement from the Donor Pool to be Actual Donors Repeat b number of times 5
6 Kim s Adjustment Kim (2002) investigates ABB and shows multiple imputation variance estimator has a downward bias that is not negligible for moderate sample sizes. He proposes to reduce the size of the donor pool to minimize bias. 6
7 Parzen, Lipsitz, and Fitzmaurice s Adjustment Parzen, Lipsitz, and Fitzmaurice (2005) reviewed Kim s (2002) paper and suggested an alternative to reducing bias via a simple correction factor applied to the standard multiple imputation variance estimate. More Easily Implemented More Efficient (less variability in the variance estimates) 7
8 Weighted Sequential Hot Deck Weighted Sequential Hot Deck (Cox 1980, Iannacchione 1982, RTI International 2008) n r is the number of item respondents (5) w h is the sample weight for the h th respondent n m is the number of item nonrespondents (3) s i is the scaled weight for the i th nonrespondent s2 s3 8
9 Weighted Sequential Hot Deck Same Donor Pool Repeat WSHD b Times on Respondents Not Proper Multiple Imputation Bootstrap Donor Pool Essentially the First With Replacement Sample in the ABB Process ABB: With Replacement Sample to Create Donor Pool, With Replacement Sample to Select Donors, Repeat b Times WSHD: With Replacement Sample to Create Donor Pool, WSHD to Select Donors, Repeat b Times WSHD Implemented using SUDAAN (RTI International 2008) 9
10 Monte Carlo Simulation Extends Kim s (2002) which was used by PLF (ignorable nonresponse within one imputation class. Also used by Demirtas, Arguelles, Chung, and Hedeker 2007) 2 Sample Sizes Distributions of the Analytic Variable Normal with mean 5 and variance 1 Chi-Square with 5 degrees of freedom 3 Response Rates 40% 60% 80% 2 Values for the Number of Multiple Imputations
