Description

Create an observed data set that includes missing data

Usage

genObs(dtName, dtMiss, idvars)

Arguments

dtName	Name of complete data set
dtMiss	Name of missing data matrix
idvars	Index variables that cannot be missing

Value

A data table that represents observed data, including missing data

Examples

def1 <- defData(varname = "m", dist = "binary", formula = .5)
def1 <- defData(def1, "u", dist = "binary", formula = .5)
def1 <- defData(def1, "x1", dist = "normal", formula = "20*m + 20*u", variance = 2)
def1 <- defData(def1, "x2", dist = "normal", formula = "20*m + 20*u", variance = 2)
def1 <- defData(def1, "x3", dist = "normal", formula = "20*m + 20*u", variance = 2)

dtAct <- genData(1000, def1)

defM <- defMiss(varname = "x1", formula = .15, logit.link = FALSE)
defM <- defMiss(defM, varname = "x2", formula = ".05 + m * 0.25", logit.link = FALSE)
defM <- defMiss(defM, varname = "x3", formula = ".05 + u * 0.25", logit.link = FALSE)
defM <- defMiss(defM, varname = "u", formula = 1, logit.link = FALSE) # not observed
defM

# Generate missing data matrix

missMat <- genMiss(dtAct, defM, idvars = "id")
missMat

# Generate observed data from actual data and missing data matrix

dtObs <- genObs(dtAct, missMat, idvars = "id")
