Psychosocial Health Summary: SF Social functioning scale score (items: SF1 = Getting on with others; SF2 = Children not wanting to be friends; SF3 = Teased; SF4 = Not able to do the same things; SF5 = Keeping up); EF = Emotional Functioning Scale Score (items: EF1 = Afraid/scared; EF2 = Sad; EF3 = Angry; EF4 = Sleeping; EF5 = Worrying); School Functioning Scale Score (items: ScF1 = Paying attention; ScF2 = Forgetting; ScF3 = Keeping up; ScF4 = Missing school—unwell; ScF5 = Missing school—appointments). % Percentage of improvement comparing Post versus Pre. Wilcoxon ranks test:
p < .05 indicates significant improvement compared to the pre-intervention assessment (SF: p = .035, z = − 2.11; EF: p = .011, z = − 2.54; SC: p = .018, z = − 2.37)
