Self-determination scale perceived choice scores range from 1 to 5, with higher values indicating greater levels of self-determination.

Treatment motivation scores range from 1 to 7, with higher values indicating greater treatment motivation.

General self-efficacy scale scores range from 10 to 40, with higher values indicating greater self-efficacy.
