Declarations
:
: The authors declare that they have no competing interests.
: The study protocol and the questionnaires were submitted to the ethics committee of the Medical University of Vienna that waived responsibility (personal e-mail communication, 12th February, 2019), since survey/questionnaire studies with experts/professionals do not need to be submitted to an ethics committee in Austria. Approval from the ethics committee at the Danube University Krems for the conduct of study 2 was obtained on the 12th July 2018 (GZ EK 31/2015-2018) and from the School Board of the state of Lower Austria on the 20th August 2018 (Präs.-420/2410-2018). This was necessary because pupils were involved in the larger and separate evaluation of the health promotion project.
: All participating teachers were informed about the aim, the duration, and the demands of the study a priori in a leaflet. By filling in the paper–pencil questionnaires, teachers provided informed consent.
: Not applicable as research results are presented on an aggregated level.
