This was a big survey, I think it would have been significant. They had 41,434 responses without a "father living in the home", so by the census numbers you'd expect ~8200 responses without a mother in the home. They also didn't consider kids without either parent, which should have been equally significant. It does seem like a weird omission - I found what I think is the survey they used (https://web.archive.org/web/20200707085026/https://www.communitiesthatcare.net/userfiles/files/2014CTCYS.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20200707085026/https://www.commu...) and the study authors did have this information, they just didn't use it for some reason. The wording they use, "father in the home", seems like it covers kids without any parents or only grandparents as well as kids with single mothers, so the phrasing seems pretty misleading.
