[R] pairwise deletion in regression models

[adel daoud]

Dear R users,



I would like to use a pairwise deletion of missing values in linear
regression (lm or glm preferably). I want to replicate some studies done in
STATA that uses this type of deletion. What options do we have in R to work
with pairwise deletion? Most packages I have found do not have this option,
it seems (lm, glm, plm, psych, sampleSelection).



This question has been raised here
<http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/set-the-bahavior-that-R-deal-with-missing-values-td803840.html>
and here
<http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Pairwise-deletion-in-a-linear-regression-and-in-a-GLM-td4653004.html>,
but without any clear answer.



Any input is welcomed



Thanks in advance


Adel
