5 I want to convince you of three things. 1 Missing data is a problem for statistical analysis. 2 Multiple imputation is a method that drastically improves the analysis of incomplete data. 3 Our software, Amelia, is a simple yet powerful way to implement this method.
6 the problem: missing data a solution our approach
7 year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso
8 year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 393 NA NA Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 435 NA Burkina Faso
9 > NA + 34 [1] NA
10 year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 393 NA NA Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 435 NA Burkina Faso
11 Listwise Deletion year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 393 NA NA Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 435 NA Burkina Faso
12 Listwise Deletion year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso
13 Listwise Deletion Solves <the problem>?
14 Listwise Deletion Solves <the problem>? Yes.
15 Listwise Deletion Solves <the problem>? Yes. Creates new problems?
16 Listwise Deletion Solves <the problem>? Yes. Creates new problems? Yes.
17 New Problems
18 New Problems BIAS The cases you throw out are systematically different than the ones that you leave in.
19 New Problems BIAS The cases you throw out are systematically different than the ones that you leave in. INEFFICIENCY Tossing out observed information with the missing values.
20 Imputation year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 393 NA NA Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 435 NA Burkina Faso
21 Imputation year country GDP infl trade population Burkina Faso Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 393 x a x b Burkina Faso Burkina Faso 435 x c Burkina Faso

24 Mean Imputation Solves <the problem>? Yes.
25 Mean Imputation Solves <the problem>? Yes. Creates new problems?
26 Mean Imputation Solves <the problem>? Yes. Creates new problems? Yes.
27 New Problems
28 New Problems BIAS Ignores correlations between variables.
29 New Problems BIAS Ignores correlations between variables. OVERCONFIDENCE Treating imputations as observed data.
30 The problem, revised How do we fill in the data in an way that both preserves the relationships in the observed data and incorporates the uncertainty of imputation?
31 the problem a solution: multiple imputation our approach
32 The Multiple Imputation Scheme
33 The Multiple Imputation Scheme incomplete data
34 The Multiple Imputation Scheme incomplete data imputation imputed datasets
35 The Multiple Imputation Scheme incomplete data imputation imputed datasets analysis separate results
36 The Multiple Imputation Scheme incomplete data imputation imputed datasets analysis separate results combination final results

41 Multiple Imputation
42 Multiple Imputation REGRESSION To preserve the relationships in the data.
43 Multiple Imputation REGRESSION To preserve the relationships in the data. SIMULATION To reflect the uncertainty of our imputation.
44 How to impute y = X β + ε REGRESSION
45 How to impute X mis i = X obs i β + ε REGRESSION
46 How to impute X mis i = X obs i β + ε REGRESSION β N(β, var( β)) SIMULATION ε N(0, σ 2 X mis )

63 Error Checking > a.out <- amelia(africa) Amelia Error Code: 37 The variable(s) country are "factors". You may have wanted to set this as a ID variable to remove it from the imputation model or as an ordinal or nominal variable to be imputed. Please set it as either and try again.
