Dear Dr. King,
I am using Amelia for Windows.
As I understand it, the usual sequence of steps is imputation - analysis
- combination. Is it possible to combine the datasets before analysis?
What I want to do is to replace the missing values, then combine all
datasets into a single dataset (by averaging) and then perform the
analyses.
I need to do this because I want to create a factor score out of eight
indicators and then use the score in further analyses.
Is this an appropriate way of using Amelia?
I would appreciate any ideas.
Thank you,
Claudiu Tufis
