Re: st: Stata 11 mi vs SAS procmi

To impute multivariate data, -mi- offers -mi impute monotone- and -mi impute
mvn-. -mi impute monotone- is similar to the MONOTONE statement in SAS's PROC
MI. -mi impute mvn- implements the NORM method which is also implemented in
SAS's PROC MI.

-mi- is not a packaged compilation of the user-written commands -ice- and
-mim-. See
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2009-07/msg01107.html
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2009-08/msg00385.html
for a brief comparison of -mi- and these user-written routines.
