sens.wald: Wald Test for Pooled Sensitivity Analysis Results

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also

Description

Uses MIcombine to pool results from models estimated on the sensitivity imputed datasets.

Usage

1
sens.wald(obj, hyps, sensData, impData, digits=3, ...)

Arguments

obj

A model estimated on the original, list-wise deleted data. The model will be re-estimated on the complete data from the sensitivity analysis and the original mice procedure. Must be a model for which update will work.

hyps

A hypothesis matrix or a symbolic description of hypothesis tests to be passed to linearHypothesis from the car package.

sensData

Output from sens.est that includes multiply imputed datasets under a hypothetical non-ignorable mechanism.

impData

An object of class mids resulting from a call to mice that gives the imputed data assuming ignorability

digits

Number of digits to be printed in output

...

other arguments passed down to the model function, currently not implemented

Details

The function performs a wald test on the pooled coefficient and variance-covariance matrix. Note that currently, this does not use either the correction proposed by Li, Ragunathan and Rubin (1991) or Reiter (2007).

Value

Returns a matrix of average chi-squared statistics and average p-values
