摘要：

A maximum likelihood method of estimating the parameters of the multiple factor model when data are missing from the sample is presented. A Monte Carlo study compares the method with 5 heuristic methods of dealing with the problem. The present method shows some advantage in accuracy of estimation over the heuristic methods but is considerably more costly computationally. © 1979 The Psychometric Society.
