Summary of Intercorrelations for Narrative Language and EVT-2 and PPVT-4 Scores

Measure	EVT-2	PPVT-4
1. EE	.03	−.11
2. NDW rate	.27	.21
3. C-Density	.01	−.19
4. DDM	−.34^*	−.31^*

Note. Macrostructural (EE), microstructural (NDW rate, C-Density), and dialectal (DDM) measures were summed across fictional and personal narratives. EE = expressive elaboration; NDW rate = number of different word roots per communication unit; C-Density = clause density; DDM = dialect density measure. EVT-2 = Expressive Vocabulary Test, 2nd ed.; PPVT-4 = Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, 4th ed.
