aThe retention rate is based on the final sample sizes of T0 and the respective wave. Total sample sizes of follow-up waves were counted, excluding 2 participants who should have been excluded but had been allowed to participate in the follow-up waves due to a technical error.

bN/A: not applicable; retention rates were calculated using final sample sizes of T0 and the follow-up waves.

cMore details on exclusions can be found in the Statistical Analysis, Data Exclusion section.
