Using secondary data from the Preschool Social and Emotional Development Study, we found that while the income-to-needs ratio was not related to HEFE, arental education was. Specifically, those with college credits or a college degree scored highe n the HEFE compared to those with a high school diploma or less. Additionally, we found tha scores on HEFE were lower when filled out by the father compared to mothers. The results add to previous, work that parental caucation may drive socioeconomic differences in parenting
