Considering EBICglasso for network modeling, but have a lot of missing data? A recent paper (accepted at Multivariate Behavioral Research), osf.io/preprints/os... may help. The paper is a bit technical, so a new blog post focuses on software: www.psych.mcgill.ca/perpg/fac/fa...

"But my early view was that statistics was there to uncover truth with a capital T. And my more recent view is that statistics works best when you use it as a tool to help you reason under uncertainty. That's really where it shines ..." -Dustin Fife

This is my favorite math youtuber by far.

#quantpsych Does anyone remember a post/preprint/paper about new terms for describing MCAR/MAR/NMAR? I'm trying to find it but I can't 😢
I think it was something related to systematic error, vs response bias, or something
