Dear UKHLS team,

I am estimating a latent model in Mplus. I would like to do multiple imputation to fix the pattern of missingness.

Unfortunately, accounting for complex survey design is not currently available with multiple imputation in Mplus. In their forum, they recommend the following approach: 'If you have to do MI and the above alternative is not an option you can use 3-level imputation where the weight variable or a log of it is added as a variable (so information from that variable can be used) during the imputation process, in addition to any other variables used for constructing the weights.' [https://www.statmodel.com/discussion/messages/12/26948.html?1556842127]

I use the h_indscui_lw. What are the variables used for constructing this weight?

I look forward to your reply.

Kind regards,

Ivelina
