EM
imputation methods used provided a value
for missing data points
for each individual participant based on both the estimated sample parameters and the actual responses at completed data points, preserving sample size and making use of all available data, while maintaining the variance within the sample.
To test whether results were still significant under the assumption that data were missing at random, we conducted multiple
imputation and ran our primary analyses across 10 imputed data sets, 37 adjusting
for additional variance across
imputations.

for missing poverty data, we used UVIS (univariate

Fit indices used to evaluate the model included a χ2 goodness - of - fit test (nonsignificant values indicate good fits), the comparative fit index (scores of > 0.95 indicate better fits), the root mean square error of approximation (values of < 0.05 indicate good fits), and the standardized root mean square residual (values of < 0.08 indicate good fits).43, 44 Missing values were imputed through multiple

imputation model included all the predictors in the alcohol models plus a number of auxiliary variables that were not of direct theoretical interest but were nonetheless predictive of missingness so as to improve the quality of the
imputations and make the missing at random assumption more plausible.28
