Simple correlation analysis (Table 3) of parent education with input measures in 50 dyads. "narrative utterances are not significantly related to parent education at any child age (Table 3)" while quantity and diversity measures were positively related.

"Interestingly, narrative utterances are not significantly related to parent education at any child age (Table 3)."
