Total N and N Yes = Intervention groups combined. PA-I Physical activity intervention group, SB-I Sedentary behaviour intervention group, SB + PA-I=Combined physical activity and sedentary behaviour group. T3: 18-months (Nov-Dec 2011). T4: 30-months (Nov-Dec 2012). ^aQuestion not asked either at T3 or T4. Empty cells relate to questions not being asked of that group due to lack of relevance
