Comparing Missing Data Methods for Estimating Average Treatment Effects Under Time-Varying Confounding: A Simulation Study
时变混杂下平均处理效应估计的缺失数据方法比较
Missing data and confounding are common in real-world statistical applications, yet few studies have examined how imputation methods perform under time-varying confounding in binary variables, or how missingness mechanism, missing rate, missingness location and sample size jointly affect performance and the underlying identifiability conditions. We generated synthetic data and conducted a simulation study comparing missing data methods across scenarios varying these factors.…
