mice.impute.mean

Incomplete data vector of length <code>n</code>

Vector of missing data pattern (<code>FALSE</code>=missing,
<code>TRUE</code>=observed)

Matrix (<code>n</code> x <code>p</code>) of complete covariates.


Imputes the arithmetic mean of the observed data

Multiple imputation using Fully Conditional Specification (FCS)
implemented by the MICE algorithm. Each variable has its own imputation
model. Built-in imputation models are provided for continuous data
(predictive mean matching, normal), binary data (logistic regression),
unordered categorical data (polytomous logistic regression) and ordered
categorical data (proportional odds). MICE can also impute continuous
two-level data (normal model, pan, second-level variables). Passive
imputation can be used to maintain consistency between variables. Various
diagnostic plots are available to inspect the quality of the imputations.

Imputing the mean of a variable is almost never
appropriate.  See Little and Rubin (1987).
