+ | ===== SQUASH in Lifelines ===== | ||
+ | [[start|Lifelines]] implemented the SQUASH in [[1A Questionnaire 2]], [[2A Questionnaire 1]] and [[3A Questionnaire 1]]. In [[1B]], [[1C]] and [[3B]], participants were only asked a very general question about their physical activity level.\\ | ||
+ | Note that the full squash was also implemented in additional assessment [[NEXT]]. Two general questions from the SQUASH were asked in the additional questionnaire on [[ACTQ|daily activities (ACTQ)]]. | ||
