Note: “Missing” refers to participants who did not finish phase 1 and therefore did not report their gender. Four of these participants were erroneously invited back to future phases because they started multiple sessions at phase 1. Participants who started multiple sessions during any phase were excluded from analyses. “N retained” is the number of participants after exclusions were applied at the end of each phase. “N analysed” is the number of participants after exclusions were retroactively applied. For example, if a participant responded uniformly to all statements during phase 4, their data were excluded from all previous phases.
