Note. BS = Between-subjects (centered on the group mean). WS = Within-subjects (centered on the person mean). Each column represents a separate model.

a

Male = 1 versus Female =0.

b

Reference group is morning.

c

Weekend day = 1 versus weekday = 0.

d

Currently engaging in physical activity = 1 versus not currently engaging in physical activity = 0.

e

Action (A) = 1 versus pre-action (Pre-A) = 0.

f

Maintenance (M) = 1 versus action (A) = 0.

Random intercept multilevel models with robust standard errors are used.
