NSDUH 2018 Editing and Imputation Report

Published by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Catalog Last Checked: September 07, 2025 at 08:28 AM | Dataset Last Updated: September 06, 2025
This report focuses on the editing and statistical imputation procedures that were applied to respondent data for the 2018 NSDUH. Logical editing uses data from elsewhere within the same respondent's record to reduce the occurrence of missing or ambiguous data or to resolve inconsistencies between related variables. Imputation is defined as the replacement of missing values with valid, nonmissing values. Statistical imputation usually involves some randomness to preserve the natural variability in the data.
