ABSTRACT
Purpose
To provide an example of censored data analysis in the management
of CED-S missing data, using a data set of a study conducted with
Mexican rural women.
Material and Methods
Data used for this exercise were collected in a cross-sectional study
with 416 women in the Mexican region known as the Mixteca Baja.
Using a Survival Analysis (SA) focus we present a general description
of the scores, along with the estimation of association patterns between
those scores and the independent variables departing from Cox’s
proportional risk model. A comparison is made of these results and
those obtained through a regression analysis.
Results
Using only the information from observations with complete data, the
average CES-D score was 11.0 and the prevalence of symptoms above
the cut-off point (16) was 23.2%. Twenty-six percent of the women did
not respond to at least one item. When conducting the SA, the estimated
mean score of the scale was 14.0. Survival above the cut-off point
corresponded to an estimated prevalence of 21%.
Conclusions
SA is useful in the management of data sets with missing data in
scales such as the CES-D. In this example, the increased percentage
of observations with missing data produced a loss of precision in the
estimators. The differences in mean item scores between observation
with complete and incomplete data suggested a non-random, noresponse
pattern, if this is not taken into consideration it could bias
the estimation in the scale mean and its association with other
variables. Conducting SA we were able to use the information of most
women participating in the study, including those who did not respond
to all items in the scale.
