  1. * Difference (baseline to FU2), all variables were adjusted for their respective baseline value and age. ANCOVA was used to analyse the data. CI confidence interval, FU1 follow-up 1 (conducted immediately after the intervention), FU2 follow-up 2 (conducted six months after the intervention). Note; Self efficacy and outcome expectancies range from 1 to 7; Social support range from 1 to 5.
