Subject | st: how to deal with missing values while running an ordinal logistic regression |
Date | Fri, 23 Apr 2010 01:14:17 +0200 |
Good day Stata-listers, I'm confronted to a problem, I have to run an ordinal logistic regression but the issue consist on the existence of many missing values, some of them are on the dependant variable itself , the others are on the explanatory variables (all the explanatory variables are qualitative), so I have two questions: 1) should I drop the observations where the dependant variable is missing ,or there is any alternative method to deal with this situation? 2) How can I deal with the missing values when located on the dependant variable? Any hint will be highly appreciated !! Thanks a lot in advance, Ama * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
