Note. Tabled values are maximum likelihood estimates of means, standard deviations, and correlations produced by full information maximum likelihood estimation in the presence of missing data. Family and Community Health Study (FACHS) study N = 428 African American families, California Families Project (CFP) study N = 262 Mexican-origin families, and Iowa Youth and Families Project (IYFP) study N = 385 European American families. Boldfaced values are statistics for manifest variables missing completely (MVMC), specifically, the CES–D parcels in the FACHS study and the MASQ parcels in the IYFP study. Manifest variables: U = unmet material needs; C = can’t make ends meet; F = financial cutbacks; M1F and M2F = Mini-MASQ Parcels 1 and 2 father report; C1F and C2F = CES–D Parcels 1 and 2 father report; M1M and M2M = Mini-MASQ Parcels 1 and 2 mother report; C1M and C2M = CES–D Parcels 1 and 2 mother report.
