Non-identifiability and testability of missing mechanisms in incomplete two-way contingency tables
We showed that any missing mechanism is reproduced by EMAR or MNAR with equal fit for observed likelihood if there are non-negative solutions of maximum likelihood equations. This is a generalization of Molenberghs et al. (2008) and Jeon et al. (2019). Nonetheless, as MCAR becomes a nested model of MNAR, a natural question is whether or not MNAR and MCAR are testable by using the well-known three statistics, LR (Likelihood ratio), Wald, and Score test statistics. Through simulation studies, we compared these three statistics. We investigated to what extent the boundary solution affect tesing MCAR against MNAR, which is the only testable pair of missing mechanisms based on observed likelihood. We showed that all three statistics are useful as long as the boundary proximity is far from 1.
期刊介绍:
Communications for Statistical Applications and Methods (Commun. Stat. Appl. Methods, CSAM) is an official journal of the Korean Statistical Society and Korean International Statistical Society. It is an international and Open Access journal dedicated to publishing peer-reviewed, high quality and innovative statistical research. CSAM publishes articles on applied and methodological research in the areas of statistics and probability. It features rapid publication and broad coverage of statistical applications and methods. It welcomes papers on novel applications of statistical methodology in the areas including medicine (pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device), business, management, economics, ecology, education, computing, engineering, operational research, biology, sociology and earth science, but papers from other areas are also considered.
