From: Implementation of a co-designed physical activity program for older adults: positive impact when delivered at scale

  Relationship between baseline value and program dose (Spearman’s rho) Relationship between program dose and change baseline to 3 months Relationship between program dose and change baseline to 6 months

 Social Exclusion (score, 0–15) 0.06 −0.02 − 0.06
 Loneliness (score, 3–9) − 0.006 −0.01 0.01
