  • Title: Model-based incomplete data analysis with an application to occupational mobility and migration accounts.
    Author: Sweeney SH.
    Journal: Math Popul Stud; 1999; 7(3):279-305, 308-9. PubMed ID: 12295227.
    Abstract:
    "The overriding goal of this paper has been to move the analysis of incomplete data in the direction of modeling and away from the predominantly algorithmic approach that is commonly used. The framework for the modeling approach, including the use of the log-linear model, was originally suggested by Willekens (1982). This paper builds on his work by: (1) providing a justification for the use of synthetic data, (2) highlighting some of the key statistical qualities of the log-linear model in a GLM framework, and (3) proposing a path diagram to structure the analysis." The author includes an application to incomplete occupational migration and mortality tables for the United States. (EXCERPT)
