Abstract Bias resulting from missing cases has been largely ignored by studies that have examined the relationship between psychosocial factors and unintentional childhood injuries. This study was part of a larger investigation that examined associations between psychosocial factors and unintentional childhood injuries. The children for whom injury data were incomplete (missing cases) were compared with the remainder of the sample on a variety of family, behavioral, and developmental factors. The analyses showed that, with two exceptions, the missing cases group was not significantly different from the remainder of the sample in terms of the psychosocial factors. These findings contrast with most previous studies. Possible explanations for this were the relatively small numbers of missing cases in some of the analyses and the controls for Type I errors.
