Multiple imputation (MI) is a popular experimental procedure for handling missing data, while robust regression implements novel empirical evidence for the decision regarding non-normal or normal variables. By down-weighting the influence of outliers, Robust regression minimize residual impact on the coefficient estimates. A macro developed by the Fortrea Company, combines two methods together to accurately capture this relationship in continuous efficacy laboratory data and protect against potential non‐normality/outliers in the original or imputed dataset. This paper provides an example programming procedure and suggests possible improvements in the macro based on the author's experience.
