Hi Listers,

Hope rookie questions are welcome here, as I don't have a strong quantitative background.  

Can I impute missing data from a survey (with mainly dichotomous and ordinal questions) and end up with 1 credible dataset with which to conduct the analysis?  I have been able to impute the m datasets using AMELIA, but I'd like to combine them appropriately to use just 1 file with SPSS and AMOS (SEM).  If anyone can recommend a procedure I'd be super grateful. 

If it is not something I can do competently, are there folks out there who do fee-for-service consulting or analysis?  If so, I'd like to hear from you…pls respond off-list.  I need to keep it very economical and expedient, I'm fulltime, my research is not funded and I am very close to the deadline for PhD completion.  Thanks,
