  1. Notes: UI = Uncertainty interval, T1 = baseline, T2 = 2 months after play-scape installation, T3 = 14 months after play-scape installation
  2. Means reported from probabilistic uncertainty analysis based on 2000 iterations. *Incremental MET-h takes into account changes in visitations at the control park and changes due to the intervention
