Note: PP = Primary Prevention, PP+PS = Primary + Secondary Prevention; C = Control

Changes are adjusted means (SE).

F values are arm main effects. Reported F values are all non-significant (P < .05). Post-doc comparisons that were statistically significant are marked:

*

P < .05;

**

P < .02.

E.S.: Effect size is the standardized mean difference δT appropriate for cluster randomized designs (34).

Intra-class correlations ranged from 0.12 to 0.40 for food intake data; and were .01 for Physical Activity and .03 for Sedentary Behavior
