Hi,
Thanks! So, you're saying I should output the descriptives from the individual 
data files, and manually do the stats to get the combined estimates (or, I can 
use the files in mplus or spss to run it in those programs)? Is there no 
automated process in any of the mi or mi-related packages that automates that 
pooling?
Thanks,
Mike
