  1. aThe association of each environmental predictor with PA indicators was assessed in a separate model
  2. bAll analyses are adjusted for age, sex, season of measurement, household income and nationality
  3. cThe total score of the perceived environment was based on the sum of the four dimension (1 for the lowest tertile and 3 for the highest tertile) resulting in a scrore from 4 to 12
