  1. PA = physical activity; SB = sedentary behavior.
  2. aThe total effect models were adjusted for sex, country of birth, SES, baseline accelerometer wear time, mid-intervention accelerometer wear time, baseline sedentary time, and baseline mediator variables.
  3. bThe direct effect models were adjusted for all the variables in the total effect models and mid-intervention mediator variables.
  4. * P < 0.05.
