Peer reviewedRaymond, Mark R. – Evaluation and the Health Professions, 1986
Several methods for dealing with incomplete multivariate data and ways to examine the effectiveness of these methods are discussed. It is concluded that pairwise and listwise deletions are among the least effective methods in terms of approximating the results, whereas estimates based on correlational procedures generally produce the most accurate…

Peer reviewedWalton, Karen D.; Walton, Zachary D. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1992
Examines the use of the computer to approximate the value of the definite integral normally calculated by mathematical means. Presents four examples using BASIC programs to approximate single and double integrals by numerical integration and the Monte Carlo method. Programs are provided. (MDH)
