Columns with same superscript (a,b,c) indicate a significant difference (p<0.05; least significant difference pairwise comparisons) in behaviour by perceived change in time outdoors since COVID-19.
*P<.05 for difference by perceived change in time spent outdoors (Analysis of Variance; Welch Robust Test of Equality of Means).
