Note. Table entries are percentages. When the active intervention versus passive intervention participant responses were compared, at the four month follow up interview only the difference between the groups on showing the CR the Agreement with My Familywas significantly different (54.5% active intervention use versus 25.0% passive intervention use, chi-square1⁄43.317, df1⁄41, p1⁄4.069, n1⁄438). Due to the small sample size and case distribution, there were no significant differences between active and passive intervention participants in their reported use of different tools.
