Notes: All scores range from 0 to 20. Total Physical Activity EPAO Score was calculated by taking the mean of all physical activity subscales. PA = physical activity; M = mean; SD = standard deviation. The mean scores for each subscale are based on one day of observation at each childcare facility.
