US American National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)
collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and
the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) for 2015-2016.
The NHANES data are included into the package for illustration.
The modified data set nhanes_mod was imputed by running hmi(nhanes_mod, maxit = 50).
The Website (https://wwwn.cdc.gov/Nchs/Nhanes/2015-2016/INQ_I.htm) gives the following Analytic notes:
"The income questions were asked as part of household interview,
the interview sample weights may be used in the analysis for data in this section.
However, if the data is joined with other data from the Mobile Examination Center (MEC),
the MEC exam weights should be used. Please refer to the NHANES Analytic Guidelines
and the on-line NHANES Tutorial for further details on the use of sample weights
and other analytic issues. Both of these are available on the NHANES website."
