The trial mode statistics are the mean scores (or overall percentage) within the mode across all five periods (stages). Note that because all comparisons are adjusted for period the direction of effect does not necessarily correspond with the within mode summary statistics. A detailed breakdown of results within each period is shown in Table 3 for ‘Meets physical activity guidelines’ and ‘number of MET minutes per week’.
The comparative statistic is the Mean Difference for quantitative outcomes, and the Odds Ratio for dichotomous outcomes. Sample size ranged from 3892 to 4693 in the intervention mode and 4657 to 5719 in the control mode. Crude analyses adjusted for period. Adjusted analyses adjusted for period, gender, age, and area.
