Monte Carlo results (based on 500 replicates): Linear regression with missing covariate where N = 200, X1 ~ Poisson(1), X2 ~ N(3 − 0.5 * X1, 0.5), Y ~ N(b0 + b1 * X1 + b2 * X2, 8), missing rate = 0.40, Spearman correlation coefficient between X1 and X2: −0.68, Spearman correlation coefficient between X1 and Y: 0.23, and Spearman correlation coefficient between X2 and Y: −0.22
