Case Study #2 - Handling Missing Data

The data set to be studied, which uses health data from the 1994 National Population Health Survey, has missing data to simulate non-response. In addition to studying the relationship between health status and health determinants, the student will learn about response mechanisms, non-response bias, and different methods to treat and analyze data with missing values.
