Inclusion and exclusion criteria of self-management behaviors

Inclusion or exclusion	Criteria
Include in final list	Median score of 7–9 for at least 2 statements, including statement 1* AND an IQR ≤2 for all 3 statements AND no statement with a median score of 1–3.
Include in next Delphi round	Each statement with an IQR >2.
Exclude	• 1 (or more) statement(s) with a median of 1–3 AND an IQR ≤2 for all 3 statements.
	• 2 (or more) statements with a median of 4–6 AND an IQR ≤2 for all 3 statements.
	• Statement 1 with a median of 4–6 AND an IQR ≤2 for all 3 statements.

Notes:

^*A median of 7–9 on statement 1 was required in all cases since statement 1 investigated the association between a self-management behavior and reduction of exacerbation impact and was considered to be most important. Median 1–3= not relevant/feasible; median 4–6= uncertain; median 7–9= relevant/feasible.

Abbreviation: IQR, interquartile range.
