Notes. We also explored interactions between age and self-rated health on precipitation–physical activity slopes, which were not statistically significant over and above the reported findings. Additional analyses controlling for self-reported typicality of time in study did not reveal any statistically significant main or moderating effects of typicality on precipitation–physical activity associations for any of the four physical activity indices.
