Perceived behavioural control was measured on a Likert scale of 1 (extremely difficult) through 7 (extremely easy); 4 was considered neutral. Bolded values are significantly different from run-in (pre-intervention), within groups. GLB (n = 70 with mean value imputation); GLB+LGx (n = 70 with mean value imputation). TPB: Theory of Planned Behaviour; NS: non-significant; PA: physical activity; kcal: calories; GLB: Group Lifestyle Balance™; LGx: lifestyle genomics.
