  • Randomization-Based Inference about Latent Variables from Complex Samples

  • Standard procedures for drawing inferences from complex samples do not apply when the variable of interest θ cannot be observed directly, but must be inferred from the values of secondary random variables that depend on θ stochastically. Examples are proficiency variables in item response models and class memberships in latent class models. Rubin's “multiple imputation” techniques yield approximations of sample statistics that would have been obtained, had θ been observable, and associated variance estimates that account for uncertainty due to both the sampling of respondents and the latent nature of θ. The approach is illustrated with data from the National Assessment for Educational Progress.
