Panel attrition threatens external validity in adolescent substance use research. A 7-yr adolescent panel was examined to determine whether attrition effects varied by (1) type of substance assessed and (2) method of measurement and type of statistical analysis. Chi-squares and multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVAs) revealed that study dropouts were more likely to use substances and reported higher mean use of substances at baseline than stayers; attrition effects varied by substance; and mean use comparisons were more likely to detect attrition effects than use–nonuse comparisons. Implications of these findings for adolescent substance use research are discussed.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
