Although we attempted to recruit participants between 14 and 20 years of age, only participants aged 16 years and over expressed interest and signed on to the study. These respondents were required to provide consent and pass a Gillick Competency Task, which ensured they had the capacity to provide <i>informed</i> consent and understood the nature of the study. In line with the Australian National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research, no parental or guardian consent was required for these respondents.
