Questionnaires administered to participants.

<p>*Examples of questions relating to perceived behavioural control included:</p><p>“To what extent do you see yourself as being able to do 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on 5 or more days in the coming week?”.</p><p>“How confident are you that you will be able to do 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on 5 or more days in the coming week?”.</p
