Dear all,
I want to do a logistic regression.
So far I've only found out how to do that in R, in a dataset of complete
cases.
I'd like to do logistic regression via max likelihood, using all the
study cases (complete and incomplete). Can you help?
I'm using glm() with family=binomial(logit).
If any covariate in a study case is missing then the study case is
dropped, i.e. it is doing a complete cases analysis.
As a lot of study cases are being dropped, I'd rather it did maximum
likelihood using all the study cases.
I tried setting glm()'s na.action to NULL, but then it complained about
NA's present in the study cases.
I've about 1000 unmatched study cases and less than 10 covariates so
could use unconditional ML estimation (as opposed to conditional ML
estimation).
regards
Desmond
