Terms of Clearance:
The FBI cites agency-to-agency variability in the degree of reporting arson as the main rationale for not producing national, regional, or state estimates of arson offenses. However, other crimes in which the FBI does provide estimates (i.e., major violent or property crimes) are also subject to partial reporting or nonreporting of offense data. As a condition for approval of this collection, the FBI must provide OMB within 6 months of this approval date either (1) proposed procedures for developing a national (and select subnational) estimates of arson crime or (2) an explanation of why estimation procedures are less reliable for and applicable to arson than for other crime types. Either response should reflect a good understanding of the statistical literature on imputation and estimation (e.g., Rubin, D.B. (1987) Multiple Imputation for Nonresponse in Surveys. J. Wiley & Sons, New York and Schafer, J.L. (1997) Analysis of Incomplete Multivariate Data. Chapman & Hall, London).
