A method using multiple imputation and bootstrap for dealing with miss- ing data in mediation analysis is introduced and implemented in SAS. Through simulation studies, it is shown that the method performs well for both MCAR and MAR data without and with auxiliary variables. It is also shown that the method works equally well for MNAR data if auxiliary vari- ables related to missingness are included. The application of the method is demonstrated through the analysis of a subset of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth.
