Abstract
In this paper, we consider the empirical likelihood confidence intervals for mean difference under the assumption of missing at random (MAR). We prove that the empirical log-likelihood ratio of mean difference converges to a standard chi-squared distribution. We conduct simulation study to compare the proposed empirical likelihood with the normal approximation method in terms of the coverage accuracies and average lengths of confidence intervals. By Monte Carlo simulations, we verify that the proposed method performs well.
