    Abstract : By means of a Monte Carlo study, this paper investigates the relative performance of Listwise Deletion, the EM-algorithm and the default algorithm in the MICE-package for R (PMM) in estimating regression coefficients under a left truncated covariate with missing values. The intention is to investigate whether the three frequently used missing data techniques are robust against left truncation when missing values are MCAR or MAR. READ MORE
