Hi,
I am performing MI on a dataset in R and then performing my analysis in Mplus. I have a
nominal variable in my data set (with say three levels) but to perform the analysis in
Mplus, I have to tranform the varible into two ordinal variables: one for level 2 and one
for 3 which are both compared with the reference level. My question is what are peolpe
out there doing when dealing with a similar situation? Should I be performing the MI on
the nominal or ordinal variables?
Regards,
Ian
