Compare And Contrast Maximum Likelihood Method And Inverse Probability Weighting Method In Missing Data Analysis, Scott Sun
Mathematical Sciences Technical Reports (MSTR)
Data can be lost for different reasons, but sometimes the missingness is a part of the data collection process. Unbiased and efficient estimation of the parameters governing the response mean model requires the missing data to be appropriately addressed. This paper compares and contrasts the Maximum Likelihood and Inverse Probability Weighting estimators in an Outcome-Dependendent Sampling design that deliberately generates incomplete observations. WE demonstrate the comparison through numerical simulations under varied conditions: different coefficient of determination, and whether or not the mean model is misspecified.

The factors for enhancing student engagement frequently identified are active and problem-based learning as well as real-life experience relevant to students' interests. The importance of using real data in teaching statistics has been repeatedly emphasized and its importance is growing. However, data collection, as part of a student project, faces serious practical problems. It is time-consuming, may require access to equipment, or raise ethical issues.
