Higher scores indicate greater perceived barriers.
Individual items were scored on a 5-point Likert scale: 1=Strongly disagree, 2=Disagree, 3=Neutral, 4=Agree, and 5=Strongly agree and averaged so that all scale scores could range between 1 and 5. Subscale scores were calculated as the average of scores on the individual items that load on that factor.
Higher scores indicate greater self-efficacy
Individual items were scored on a 5-point Likert Scale with 1=Not at all confident, 2= A little confident, 3=Moderately confident, 4=Very confident, and 5=Extremely confident. Subscale scores were calculated as the average of scores on the individual items that load on that factor.
Because some participants did not answer corresponding questions on both self-administered surveys, the total number responding was less than the total number of participants.
