W indicates walking barriers; v, vigorous exercise barriers.

a

Walking barriers were assessed using a 4-point scale, from 1 = not at all to 4 = a great deal; vigorous exercise barriers were assessed using a 5-point scale, from 1 = not at all to 5 = a great deal.

b

Percentage of time spent in moderate-intensity physical activity; for ease of interpretation, the nontransformed mean is presented in the table.
