A nonparametric estimator of the probability of missingness is proposed. A data driven statistic is constructed to test the missingness mechanism. Illustrations through univariate logistic regressions are presented: the method permits to estimate regression coe cients when the covariate is completely miss- ing for one response category. A test of signi cance is proposed for the coe cients. The performance of the method is investigated in a simulation study. An illustration is considered using a real data set. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-00669339/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-00669339/file/MissingHal.pdf %L hal-00669339 %U https://hal.science/hal-00669339 %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-AMU %~ IML %~ I2M
