Simulation
With a hypothetically simulated data set, we compare the PRD withNMand the method adjusted for uncertainty of mean
and variance (MV, Rubin and Schenker, 1986 and He and Raghunathan, 2009). We also compare our partially parametric
BIM-PRD with LRD, PMM (Schenker and Taylor, 1996) and the PMM-PRD.
We consider sample sizes of n = 100 and 1000 for 20%, 50% and 80% missing values under three different error
distributions and two types of missing mechanisms. Data are simulated by the following linear model
