Based on the subthemes of the questionnaire the sum variables were constituted and the reliability of the measure was evaluated using Cronbach's α coefficient.
Occupational therapy measures were evaluated using the national remedy codes 540*, 541* and 542* in conjunction with the prescription text *Ergo*.
All statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS 15 (Chicago: SPSS inc).. Volumetric differences between manual and automated measures were evaluated using paired t-tests.
Outcome measures were evaluated using a mixed effect model.
Associations between BMI and outcome measures were evaluated using linear regression, adjusting for age and experimental group.
The ergonomic measures are evaluated using a criteria list, considering the problem solving capability, costs, compatibility, complexity, and feasibility of the ergonomic measures [ 44].
The internal consistency of the Axis II measures was evaluated using the Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient.
The energy performance of the five behavior measures was evaluated using EnergyPlus simulation for a real office building across four typical U.S. climates and two vintages.
Reliability of the self-reported measures was evaluated using Kappa's index for dichotomous variables (e.g., gender), intra-class correlation coefficient for ordinal variables (e.g., economic class), and Cronbach's alpha for scales (e.g., attitude scales).
The effect of the intervention on categorical outcome measures was evaluated using a generalized estimating equation, adjusted for sex, age and school.
