NA not applicable because that GTO step was not tested or because there was no variability
*False discovery rate adjusted p < .05, significant at the 5 % level
**p < .01, significant at the 1 % level
***p < .001, significant at the 0.1 % level
aHours listed for step 3 are MPC training, the other steps are TA
bTests comparing TA/training hours spent on the intervention vs. control group within year. Greater TA/training hours were spent on the intervention group where noted with asterisks
cTests comparing TA/training hours spent between years 1 and 2 within and between groups. Differences in changes in TA/training hours spent are noted with asterisks
