Multinomial random effects logistic regression is discussed in (Haan &
Uhlendorf 2006). A nice point of Multiple Imputation is that it is not
method-specific, all it requires is that the sampling distribution of
the parameters is (approximately) Gaussian / normal. As long as this is
(approximately) true, you can use Multiple Imputation for your
multinomial random effects logistic regression.
There are ofcourse other assumptions like the missing data needs to be
MAR, and if you don't know what that means you'll have to start reading
before you touch -ice- or -mim-. A good starting point is (Allison
2001).
