Comparison of implementing and nonimplementing caregivers in Study 1.

Variable	Implementers (n = 48)	Nonimplementers (n = 14)
	M (SD)	M (SD)
Maternal age (in years)	35.2 (7.1)*	30.3 (4.7)
Maternal education	5.4 (1.1)*	4.4 (1.2)
Paternal education	5.0 (1.4)*	4.1 (1.5)
Maternal reading	49.1 (6.9)	46.5 (6.5)

Note. Maternal and paternal education based on a categorical scale to represent highest grade completed (1 = < 7th grade, 2 = 7th–8th grade, 3 = some high school, 4 = high school diploma, 5 = some college, 6 = university degree, 7 = postgraduate training). Maternal reading level was based on raw score of the Wide Range Achievement Test (Wilkinson, 1993).
