  1. Possible scores ranged from 1 to 4 for all sub-scales. Four represents the highest perception of barriers to physical exercise; ^Values in the cells of these columns are actual differences between sub-scale mean values; * Indicates that the means of the barriers sub-scales that are compared are significantly different, using Bonferroni corrected critical p values for barriers (p < 0.001)
