SSPA Blog: Upcoming Webinar on Missing Value Imputation

  
The ASA Section for Statistical Programmers and Analysts (SSPA) is proud to present the next topic in its webinar training series: 

Title: Issues and Guidelines of Multiple Imputation in Practice
Presenter: Aya Mitani, MPH, Stanford University Department of Medicine
Date and Time: Wednesday, April 17, 2013, 12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. Eastern time 
Registration Deadline: Monday, April 15, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time

Multiple imputation (MI) is a simulation-based method for handling missing data. While in theory MI yields valid results when data are missing at random (MAR), in practice the story is more nuanced. This webinar will discuss common issues that arise in multiple imputation and present practical guidelines on how best to employ MI in these scenarios.  The webinar will discuss statistical packages such as SAS, STATA and R.

The seminar is only $40 for SSPA members. The cost is $65 for other ASA members, but you can join the SSPA for $5, so save money and join the SSPA!
