The first edition of Statistical Analysis with Missing Data has been a standard reference on missing-data methods. Now, reflecting extensive developments in Bayesian methods for simulating posterior distributions, this Second Edition by two acknowledged experts on the subject offers a thoroughly up-to-date, reorganized survey of current methodology for handling missing-data problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBlending theory and application, authors Roderick Little and Donald Rubin review historical approaches to the subject and describe rigorous yet simple methods for multivariate analysis with missing values. They then provide a coherent theory for analysis of problems based on likelihoods derived from statistical models for the data and the missing-data mechanism and apply the theory to a wide range of important missing-data problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe new edition now enlarges its coverage to include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eExpanded coverage of Bayesian methodology, both theoretical and computational, and of multiple imputation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnalysis of data with missing values where inferences are based on likelihoods derived from formal statistical models for the data-generating and missing-data mechanisms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eApplications of the approach in a variety of contexts including regression, factor analysis, contingency table analysis, time series, and sample survey inference\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtensive references, examples, and exercises\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAmstat News\u003c\/i\u003e asked three review editors to rate their top five favorite books in the September 2003 issue. \u003ci\u003eStatistical Analysis With Missing Data\u003c\/i\u003e was among those chosen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134438457584,"sku":"9781118625880","price":146.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118625880_p0.jpg?v=1763694938","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118625880","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
