Hi,

I'm using the library MICE to make multiple imputations. I'can pool the
results to show how the predicted values fit, but how to combine the five
imputed datasets? I take the mean?
for exemple :
 x1<-complete(imp)
 x2<-complete(imp, 2)
 x3<-complete(imp, 3)
 x4<-complete(imp, 4)
 x5<-complete(imp, 5)
 impcomp<-(x1+x2+x3+x4+x5)/5

Or there is an other way to do this?

Thank you very much,

Best regards

Julien
