Motivational outcomes were assessed on a 5-point scale from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much)

aBetween-group mean difference was adjusted for marital status, employment status, and baseline value of the outcome, except for Specific Plan which was adjusted only for marital status and employment status as this outcome was not measured at baseline
