Algorithm 1 log-t family: ECME version of MDA
Step 1: Draw the degrees of freedom parameter ν from P(νYobs,B,Ψ).
Step 2: Sample the weights w from P(wYobs,X,B,Ψ,ν).
Step 3: Impute the missing response values that disrupt the monotone pattern from P(YMP,misYobs,X,B,Ψ,w).
Step 4: Update Ψ and B using (11).
