Performance objectives	Determinants
Performance objectives	Awareness	Knowledge	Attitude	Self-efficacy	Action planning
1. PCa & CRC CPS monitor their physical activity level	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS become aware of their own PA level	Old: OA know the PA recommendations and learn how to compare their own PA level with the recommendations
1. PCa & CRC CPS monitor their physical activity level	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS monitor and report their own PA level	New: PCa & CRC CPS know the PA recommendations during and after cancer treatment and learn how to compare their own PA level with the recommendations
2. PCa & CRC CPS indicate reasons to be physically active	Existing: PCA & CRC CPS become aware of their personally relevant benefits of being sufficiently physically active	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS learn about the general health benefits of sufficient PA and can name personal relevant reasons for being sufficiently physically active	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS feel positive about being sufficiently physically active
2. PCa & CRC CPS indicate reasons to be physically active		Added: PCa & CRC CPS learn about health benefits of PA related to cancer and can name personal relevant reasons for being sufficiently physically active
3. PCa & CRC CPS identify solutions to take away the barriers to being physically active	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS become aware of situations and barriers that prevent them from being sufficiently physically active	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS learn how to identify general difficult situations and learn about solutions that can take away the barriers		Existing: PCa & CRC CPS feel confident about being able to take away and to cope with general barriers
		Added: PCa & CRC CPS learn how to identify cancer-specific difficult situations and learn about solutions that can take away the barriers		Added: PCa & CRC CPS feel confident about being able to take away and cope with cancer-specific barriers
				Added: PCA & CRC CPS feel confident about being able to cope with physical complaints due to cancer or cancer-treatment.
5. PCa and CRC CPS make specific plans to become more physically active	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS become aware of the importance to make plans to increase their PA	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS learn how to make specific plans to increase their PA	Existing: PCa & CRC CPS feel positive about making plans to increase their PA	Existing: PCA & CRC CPS feel confident about making plans to increase their PA	Existing: PCA & CRC CPS make specific plans to increase their PA
				Existing: PCA & CRC CPS feel confident in being able to achieve their plans to increase their PA	Existing PCA & CRC CPS set goals to increase their PA
