Jul 14, 2020 at 8:53 comment added Robert Long It's a feasible approach, but it is bad practice. You are talking about a stepwise procedure and you can read on this site and many others why is it bad. Don't do it.
Jul 14, 2020 at 8:18 comment added nikarj Thanks again, will incorporate that. But from a statistical perspective, would the approach that I am suggesting be feasible?
Jul 14, 2020 at 7:45 comment added Robert Long Draw a DAG with guidance from the expert and this will inform the minimal sufficient set of variables. The free online tool Dagitty can do this for you.
Jul 14, 2020 at 7:34 comment added nikarj Thank you @robert-long. We do have a list of covariates from the domain expert, but trying to validate their significance, and trying to get the minimal set of covariates that suffice for modeling.
