The maximum percent missing was calculated based on a quadratic fit to the data.

a

Values represent the means (for the maximum percent missing to retain target correlation) taken over all directed or undirected networks.

b

Listwise deletion has no value for the case of non-respondents being kept in the correlation calculation.

c

Cases where percent missing is above 70, our observed maximum. In these cases, 70 is used to calculate overall means.
