- Total scales in bold and single items in normal font. Single items reported when analysis did not support a total scale score. Fruit and vegetables and physical activity values represent frequency with percentages in brackets achieving recommended amount. P-value results represent pre-post time effects, using paired-sample t-tests for food intake and McNemar’s tests for fruit and veg and physical activity (criteria for significance, p < .01). Effect size represents Pearsons r (criteria: 0.1 = small; 0.3 = medium; 0.5 = large)
