st: DF Adjustment

I am trying to adjust the degrees of freedom in an OLS regression
output using multiply imputed data. I am using Stata 11.1/IC.
According to UCLA
(http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/seminars/missing_data/mi_in_stata_pt2.htm),
-mi- by default uses a small sample adjustment. I think I need a large
sample adjustment, since N = 2,521 in my dataset.
Here is a simplified example of what I did:
. sysuse data, clear
. mi set mlong
. mi register imputed income
. mi register regular education gender workstatus
. mi impute regress income education gender workstatus, add(20) rseed(2232) dots
. save "C:data_mi", replace
. mi estimate, post: svy: reg income attendance
The regression output says, "DF Adjustment: Small sample."
Can/should I change this? If so, how?
I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
