Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; HRQoL, health-related quality of life; MVPA, moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity. Scale range for HRQoL and each SF-36 domain: 0–100, higher scores indicative of better status or health. None: not reporting any MVPA; Very low: reporting >0 –<90 min/week; Low: reporting ≥ 90–<150 min/week; Sufficient: reporting 150–<300 min/week; High: reporting ≥300–<390; Very high: reporting ≥390. a Model 1: adjusted for age and sex; Model 2: further adjustment for body mass index, education, employment, smoking status, mental illness, musculoskeletal disorder, chronic illness (including any heart and respiratory conditions, diabetes and cancer) and light-intensity physical activity. b Generalised linear model coefficients; coefficients indicate mean differences (in HRQoL and SF-36 domains) between the reference category (None) and each of the other MVPA groups, e.g., a value of 3 indicates that a specific category had a mean score that is 3 units higher than the referent group.
