I now have 5 imputed versions of each of my regression models
I would like to describe these models using standardized betas.
I plan to use MIANALYSIS to combine the 5 results.
The output from spss appears to write only the unstandardized betas
(for input into MIANALYSIS).
Any ideas about how I can get the Standardized beta estimates?

Yup, wrong answer, unless the statistic is linear in all the missing data, i.e., this could only work in your case if the only varible with missingness is y. ANd even then, all the standard errors and tests are wrong. Not a very successful path to follow.On Fri, 25 Jul 2003, Steve Peck wrote:Assuming a set of 20 continuous variables, are there specific reasons for *not* combining the results of 5 MI data sets before doing regression analyses (e.g., by computing value estimates by averaging across the 5 values per variable) instead of combing the parameter estimates that are generated from each of the 5 models run seperately)? thanks, Steve
