Dear all,
I'm running version 1.1-20 of Amelia on a Windows system. In trying
to help a student add a range prior for an entire variable using
AmeliaView, I clicked on "Set observation priors"; then "add range
prior"; and in the "add prior" dialogue box that pops up, selected as
"case" the whole variable, selected the appropriate variable, set the
minimum and maximum, entered an appropriate confidence coefficient,
and then clicked "OK". In the "Observational Priors" window,
what's
now listed is a whole variable prior with a mean equal to the maximum
value that I fed to the range prior. This doesn't seem right. I'm
wondering either if I'm missing something or if this is just a display
issue. I haven't yet tried to multiply impute this data set in R
itself (and hence to build the desired prior matrix).
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
