Indicators for measuring material affluence of adolescents p=0.510 respectively). Girls had slightly higher completion rates for materna occupation (p=0.039) than boys. Likewise boys had slightly higher completion rates for paternal occupation (p=0.043) than girls. We did not find such statistically significant gender differences by paternal and maternal education (p=0.758 and p=0.559). No statistically significant differences in the completion rates by age and gender were found for the questions that assessed the material indicators (p=0.531, and p=0.238 respectively). Over all, only 80.7% of the adolescents completed parental SES measures information compared to 94.2% completion rate for the material affluence indicators. It implies that 13.5 of those who could not provide information on the parental SES measures were able to provide information on the material affluence indicators.

Table 3 Factor scoring, mean, standard deviation for material affluence indicators and mean quintiles extracted from the first principal component The association of MAS quintiles with parental occupation and education are presented in Table 5. The material affluence scale (MAS) was modestly correlated with the parental SES (r=0.32; 0.36; 0.17 and 0.29 for maternal education, paternal education, maternal occupation and paternal occupation respectively, all at p<0.001). The scale explained 14% of the variance in the parental SES when all the four parental SES indicators were combined (r=0.39, p<0.001).

MAS and Parental SES p-values adjusted for age and gender. The sign shows the direction and strength of the independent association of each indicator.
