  1. Notes: Importance and confidence (single item, 11-point scale); competence and autonomy, (4 item, 5-point scale); support availability and support frequency (3 item, 5-point scale); action planning (5 item, 5-point scale); and self-monitoring (2 item, 5-point scale); N varies due to lack of valid wear-time for PA, or non-completion of full set of measures
