Re: st: robust standard errors, sureg, & suest
Woolton Lee<[email protected]> :
I am just guessing that modeling covariances in the data well at the
imputation step will be crucial, and that you will need a lot more
imputations than usual, perhaps 100 instead of 5 or 10. Just
guessing, as I say. You should run your own simulation--what is your
data structure? What are you imputing?
