Exam Analysis Q13-14

Hello, 

I noticed several participants are missing a value for bbd_baseline. For question 13 and 14 where this variable is needed, should we do complete case analysis only including those who have a value for bbd_baseline?

Thank you,

Kristen

Hi Kristen,

Yes, you should do a complete cases analysis (only include those who have a value for bbd_baseline). You don't need to specify anything in your model since STATA will drop those participants missing bbd_baseline. You should assume that those included in the model are representative of the original sample.

I hope it helps.

Best,

Monica

Hi Monica, 

Thanks! That's what I thought but just wanted to check since a substantial are missing that covariate.

Thanks,
