Hello everyone.
I'm new to Statalist. I would like to use multiple imputation with chained equations for a continuous variable in Stata 16.1 on Windows. The variable (visual acuity) is measured repeatedly at follow-up visits but one arm of the study determines the next follow-up visit based on the study participant's response to treatment. This means that the number of follow-up visits within a given period such as one year is not set. The other arm has twelve visits in one year but the study arm in question should have less visits. Should I rather use a mean imputation for the number of visits in this arm or is there a way to perform it using multiple imputation?
Thank you for your time.
Kind regards
Naseer
