Table 5.

Bias on the σ2 parameters as a function of the rate of missing data per item (π), the value of the correlation coefficient ρ between the latent variable Θ and the propensity to have missing data ξ for each method for handling missing data (results for w = 0/w = 1)

π = 10% π = 20% π = 30%
Method ρ = 0.0 ρ = -0.4 ρ = -0.9 ρ = 0.0 ρ = -0.4 ρ = -0.9 ρ = 0.0 ρ = -0.4 ρ = -0.9
