This paper investigates the effect of finding work by one of the household members on the probability of escaping from poverty in the Netherlands. For households with non-active heads, finding work by the head of the household is the most important (investigated) event connected with exiting...

Goodman (1979) and Andersen (1980) recently presented a log-multiplicative model for the analysis of association between two discrete variables. This model can be viewed as a log-linear model with certain restrictions on the interaction parameters. The usual log-linear interaction parameters are...

When sparse data have to be fitted to a log-linear or latent class model, one cannot use the theoretical chi-square distribution to evaluate model fit, because with sparse data the observed cross-table has too many cells in relation to the number of observations to use a distribution that only...

type="main" <p>Multiple imputation methods properly account for the uncertainty of missing data. One of those methods for creating multiple imputations is predictive mean matching (PMM), a general purpose method. Little is known about the performance of PMM in imputing non-normal semicontinuous...</p>
