We adapted the questionnaire, after consulting with researchers familiar with the target group, by adding some extra activities and an open-ended question identifying additional physical activity in leisure time [ 12].
Each question identifies a depressive symptom and is scored on a four-point Likert scale from 0 ("rarely"; <1 day/week) to 3 ("most or all of the time"; 5 7 days/week).
