Before calculating SEM, ensure that missing data is handled correctly. Either omit the rows with missing data or impute the missing values before calculating standard deviation. Excel's `STDEV` and `COUNT` functions will automatically ignore blank cells or non-numeric values when used in the SEM formula.
