  title:	
      this is an example of multiple imputation of
      plausible values generated from a multiple
      indicator linear growth model for categorical
      outcomes using Bayesian estimation

      The Monte Carlo setup is the same as mcex6.15,
      except Bayes estimation is used instead of WLSMV
