In this workshop we laerned why and how you can use the R package mice to solve missing data problems by means of multiple imputation. Multiple imputation is a generic approach to analyse incomplete data that reduces bias and increases precision.
To get an idea of what the workshop was about, you could read (in Dutch) this short and accessible overview of multiple imputation. Alternatively, you could check out the (English) Wikipedia page.
To install the R package mice , copy and paste the next line into your R Studio Editor and run it:
install.packages(“mice”)
