Abstract and Scope
Abstract

This paper discusses the limitations of whitening out nonresponse bias with multiple imputation and discusses the extent to which item nonresponse can be modeled as a response in and of itself. Specifically, I propose three techniques for modeling nonresponse at two different levels. I introduce a technique for modeling nonresponse in a particular variable of interest with a regression model using multiply imputed values of the nonresponses as a key explanatory variable. I then introduce two techniques for modeling nonresponse in a series of variables or over the entirety of the dataset. Finally, I introduce a technique for weighting respondents by their rate of response. The methods described in this paper are implemented in the free software which accompanies this research.
