Hi all,

I have done some of the questions in homework and do you want us to consider the "missing" values as a different group--eg: for the disagree and agree, we had the "missing" values as disagree so that we only have dichotomous group for agree and disagree.  We do have missing values.  So the p values are comparing the agree vs disagree, not agree vs disagree vs missing values--I am not trying to figure out if people that have missing values are SUPER OLD. 

 

This is only relevant I feel for 2b through 3c.

 

Thank you!!

Chris

The models you use for answering those questions (e.g. ttest) ignore the missing data! They calculate what you asked them using the available data.
