NOTE: CBPR = community-based participatory research; SE = standard error. Response categories for competence are as follows: 1 = None, 2 = Low, 3 = Moderate, 4 = High, 5 = Extremely high. Response categories for confidence (self- and team-efficacy) are as follows: 1 = Not at all confident, 2 = Slightly, 3 = Moderately, 4 = Very, 5 = Extremely confident.
