Will NLME work with mitools written by Thomas Lumley?
Yes, but since the coefficients are not just returned by the coef() function you will need to use the full MIextract/MIcombine approach rather than the shortcut of just using MIcombine() on the list of models.

Dear All,
I am doing a growth modeling using NLME. I have three levels in my data: observation, individual, household. About half of my total sample have missing values in my household-level covariates. Under this situation, the best way to go is probably to multiply impute the data (for, say, 5 times), estimate the same model separately on each model using LME function, and merge the results. My question is: given the multiply imputed data sets have already been generated, is there a simple way to automate the process of estimating the mixed model and merging the results? HLM has similar features...
Thanks!
Best, Shige
