Missing Data in Experiments: Challenges and Solutions

Robin Gomila et al.

Summary: Researchers often encounter missing data in experimental studies, which can have a significant impact on research results and causal inferences. This tutorial introduces different types of missing data and approaches to address them, including using inverse probability weighting for mild cases of missingness and re-contacting participants for severe instances.

Combining proration and full information maximum likelihood in handling missing data in Likert scale items: A hybrid approach

Wei Wu et al.

Summary: Large-scale surveys in social and behavioral science research often face challenges with missing data at the item level. Through Monte Carlo simulations, a hybrid approach was proposed to handle missing data in Likert scale items, with recommendations to use a 30% or 40% cutoff for small sample sizes, and a 40% or 50% cutoff for moderate to large sample sizes.

A review of the use of controlled multiple imputation in randomised controlled trials with missing outcome data

Ping-Tee Tan et al.

Summary: Missing data is common in RCTs, and MI is widely used for analysis, while controlled MI is less frequently used mainly in sensitivity analysis. The current use and reporting of MI methods in RCTs need improvement.

Model Specification for Nonlinearity and Heterogeneity of Regression in Randomized Pretest Posttest Studies: Practical Solutions for Missing Data

Samantha F. Anderson

Summary: This investigation compared various analysis models for estimating the average treatment effect in randomized pretest posttest designs when assumptions of commonly used statistical models are violated. The study found that listwise deletion and multiple imputation are effective techniques for handling missing data. The specific pattern of missing at random data had implications for results, emphasizing the need to consider the particular pattern of missingness beyond the general appropriateness of the missing at random assumption.

A Comparison of Full Information Maximum Likelihood and Multiple Imputation in Structural Equation Modeling With Missing Data

Taehun Lee et al.

Summary: This article systematically compares two classes of modern missing data procedures, maximum likelihood (ML) and multiple imputation (MI). The study shows that these procedures may not produce equivalent results empirically under realistic conditions where researchers work with imperfect models. Despite producing essentially equivalent results when the model is correctly specified, significant differences were found between FIML and MI estimators when the hypothesized model does not exactly hold in the population. This suggests the importance of considering the interplay between parsimony and accuracy of the imputation model in handling missing data.

Increasing Precision without Altering Treatment Effects: Repeated Measures Designs in Survey Experiments

Scott Clifford et al.

Summary: The use of survey experiments has become increasingly popular in political science. Contrary to common fears, repeated measures designs tend to produce the same results as more common designs while significantly increasing precision. These designs also offer new insights into treatment effect size and heterogeneity.
