  1. Data are means ± SD or percentages.
  2. *The numbers are based on the availability of the detailed questionnaire to assess family history.
  3. †Follow-up for illness and risk perception is directly post-test. For behavioural outcomes after three months.
  4. ‡The interpretation of the regression coefficient (b) for e.g. the illness perception diabetes risk worry (−0.21) would be that an individual in the intervention group will score 0.21 less on the perception of worries about their diabetes risk compared to an individual in the control group, when baseline values for diabetes risk would be similar.
  5. §About 6% of the participants is missing due to data cleaning according the IPAQ data processing guidelines.
