Divergent Validity: Coefficients and 95% CIs from Ordinary Least Squares Regression Models Relating the Overall Stigma Scale and Each Subscale to Height, Adjusting for Sex (n=624)^a

	Dependent Variable
	Model 5: Overall Stigma Scale	Model 6: Disclosure Carryover Subscale	Model 7: Negative Affect Subscale	Model 8: Treatment Carryover Subscale
Independent Variables	Coefficient (95% CI)
Sex (Ref: Female)	−0.09 (−0.3, 0.1)	−0.10 (−0.4, 0.2)	−0.16 (−0.4, 0.1)	0.08 (−0.2, 0.3)
Height, per 10 cm	−0.01 (−0.1, 0.1)	0.05 (−0.1, 0.2)	−0.02 (−0.1, 0.1)	−0.05 (−0.2, 0.1)

More patients are missing data for height (n=54), compared to other measured variables, resulting in a smaller sample size in this divergent validity analysis compared to the convergent validity analysis. In total, 9% of the study sample had missing data, and complete case analysis was therefore still appropriate.
