Description Usage Arguments Details Value Note Author(s) See Also Examples
This function combines two mids
objects columnwise into a single
object of class mids
, or combines a single mids
object with
a vector
, matrix
, factor
or data.frame
columnwise into a mids
object.

Pre-requisites: If y
is a mids
-object, the rows
of x$data
and y$data
should match, as well as the number
of imputations (m
). Other y
are transformed into a
data.frame
whose rows should match with x$data
.
The function renames any duplicated variable or block names by
appending ".1"
, ".2"
to duplicated names.
An S3 object of class mids
The function constructs the elements of the new mids
object as follows:
data | Columnwise combination of the data in x and y |
imp | Combines the imputed values from x and y |
m | Taken from x$m |
where | Columnwise combination of x$where and y$where |
blocks | Combines x$blocks and y$blocks |
call | Vector, call[1] creates x , call[2]
is call to cbind.mids |
nmis | Equals c(x$nmis, y$nmis) |
method | Combines x$method and y$method |
predictorMatrix | Combination with zeroes on the off-diagonal blocks |
visitSequence | Combined as c(x$visitSequence, y$visitSequence) |
formulas | Combined as c(x$formulas, y$formulas) |
post | Combined as c(x$post, y$post) |
blots | Combined as c(x$blots, y$blots) |
ignore | Taken from x$ignore |
seed | Taken from x$seed |
iteration | Taken from x$iteration |
lastSeedValue | Taken from x$lastSeedValue |
chainMean | Combined from x$chainMean and y$chainMean |
chainVar | Combined from x$chainVar and y$chainVar |
loggedEvents | Taken from x$loggedEvents |
version | Current package version |
date | Current date |
