Fixed and random effects - University of Oxford

question is, which explanatory variables (also called independent variables or covariates) to give random effects. A quantity being random means that it fluctuates over units in some population; and which particular unit is being observed, depends on chance. When some effect in a statistical model is modeled as being random, we mean that we wish to

Missing-data imputation

25.3, we discuss in Sections 25.4–25.5 our general approach of random imputation. Section 25.6 discusses situations where the missing-data process must be modeled (this can be done in Bugs) in order to perform imputations correctly. Missing data in R and Bugs In R, missing values are indicated by NA’s. For example, to see some of the data
