  1. Note. At least three studies were required for a theme. + = positive association (>59% of studies), − = negative association (>59% of studies), ? = indeterminate (34-59% of studies showing an association) and 0 = no association (<34% of studies showing any association). PA = physical activity; n/a = not applicable; SE = self-efficacy.
