fun.gfit

the name of the dataset for fitting missing data mechansim model

data

a formula to specify a multinomial transitional missing data model.

gmodel

Fit missing data model and obtain predicted probabilities of being observed for all observations.

The current version provides functions to compute, print and summarize the Index of Sensitivity to Nonignorability (ISNI) in the generalized linear model for independent data, and in the marginal multivariate Gaussian model and the linear mixed model for longitudinal/clustered data. It allows for arbitrary patterns of missingness in the regression outcomes caused by dropout and/or intermittent missingness. One can compute the sensitivity index without estimating any nonignorable models or positing specific magnitude of nonignorability. Thus ISNI provides a simple quantitative assessment of how robust the standard estimates assuming missing at random is with respect to the assumption of ignorability.
