Hi Lea,
You're in luck: As of yesterday there is a whole package devoted to reference based imputation on CRAN called rbmi
.
All the best,
Gerko
My understanding is that reference-based imputation imputes missing outcomes under the active treatment as if these subjects were allocated to the control group. There is no ready-made procedure in mice
that does this, but it should be relatively straightforward to adapt an existing mice.impute.xxx()
imputation method to do this for you.
@gerkovink thank you very much, this seems to do exactly what I was looking for! Even though it would be more convenient to implement the J2R in my mice routine as @stefvanbuuren has mentioned.
Thank you for your replies!
Cool. FWIW: if you could give us a reprex
of your problem and what you would like to get out of an imputation routine, we can see if it fits or can be implemented in the mice
workflow. I am not too familiar with reference based imputation to be honest, so the question can we do it remains a bit vague if it is not directly apparent what it is.
Hallo,
I was wondering if there is a way to do reference-based imputation like J2R according to Carpenter (2013) with mice. Are there any possibilities?
Thank you, Lea
