We can compare this to the logistic regression analysis using only the complete observations:

Note that the mean score estimate above had smaller standard error, reflecting the additional information used in the analysis.
Also, since i is a surrogate for .r, it is not used in the complete case analysis.
Next, we consider a real example of an application of the mean score method to a case-control study of the association
between ectopic pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases; see Reilly and Pepe (1995) for a full description of the data

Abstract: The program predcalc for easily calculating predicted values and confidence intervals from linear or logistic regression
model estimates for specified values of the X variables is introduced and illustrated.
Keywords: regression models, predicted values.
