Of the whole sample, 477 (37.2%) adolescents were missing data for fathers’ ADS, and 105 (8.2%) were missing data for mothers’ ADS. Adolescents who had missing data on their fathers’ and/or mothers’ ADS did not differ in age, gender, risky drinking, conduct problems, and their self-reported parenting behaviors, compared to adolescents who were not missing any data for their fathers’ and mothers’ ADS. African American (AA) adolescents (64.1%) were more likely to have missing data on parental ADS than European American (EA, 36.3%) adolescents (χ2 = 85.42, df = 1, p < .001). 373 (29.1%) adolescents were missing data on fathers’ parenting and 83 (6.5%) were missing data for mothers’ parenting. AA adolescents (49.7%) were more likely to have missing data on fathers’ parenting than EA adolescents (19.9%) (χ2 = 118.47, df = 1, p < .001).
