This study introduces completed-data model diagnostics for handling missing or latent data. This approach enhances statistical analysis by checking model fit on imputed datasets, offering advantages for various data scenarios.

Area of Science:

  • Statistics
  • Data Science
  • Computational Statistics

Background:

  • Standard statistical analysis often requires complete data.
  • Missing or latent data present challenges for accurate inference.
  • Imputation is a common technique to address incomplete datasets.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To extend the imputation approach to model checking for datasets with missing or latent data.
  • To demonstrate the advantages of using completed-data model diagnostics on imputed datasets.
  • To provide a framework for model checking within Bayesian posterior predictive checks, also interpretable in a non-Bayesian context.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing completed-data model diagnostics on imputed datasets.
  • Applying graphical diagnostics within the Bayesian posterior predictive checks framework.

  • Interpreting missing-data model checking methods as predictive inference.
  • Main Results:

    • The completed-data approach allows checking model fit using substantively relevant quantities.
    • Model checks can be devised without modeling the missingness or inclusion mechanism.
    • Qualitative features of models, especially with latent data, can be effectively checked.

    Conclusions:

    • Completed-data model diagnostics offer a flexible and advantageous approach for statistical modeling with incomplete data.
    • The methods are applicable to various scenarios, including those with missing data and latent variables.
    • The approach facilitates robust model checking, enhancing the reliability of statistical inferences.
