Male, n (%)	57 (78)
IHD/CABG or cardiac valve surgery, n/n (%)	54/19 (74/26)
Participate in hospital-based exercise CR programme ≥ 10 times, n (%)	21 (29)
Weeks between cardiovascular event and first test, median (min-max)	9 (2–64)
Occupational status, n (%)
Retired	35 (58)
Working	22 (37)
Sick leave	2 (3)
Frandin and Grimby Physical activity level (1–6), median (IQR)	3 (3–4)

n = number, SD = standard deviation, IQR = Interquartile range; IHD = ischemic heart disease; CABG = coronary artery bypass grafting; CR-program = Cardiac rehabilitation program; Frandin and Grimby Physical activity level. Higher score = more active. 1 missing value

Table 2. Scores of MOEES-SW.

MOEES-SW	Test	Retest
Physical dimension (n = 55)	28.1 ± 2.1	26.8 ± 4.1
Self-evaluative dimension (n = 57)	21.1 ± 3.1	20.4 ± 4.0
Social dimension (n = 56)	14.8 ± 3.3	13.7 ± 3.5

Mean ± SD.

Table 3. Test–retest reliability of MOEE-SW.

Variable	ICC	95% CI	SEM	SEM %
Physical n = 55	0.40	0.20–0.58	1.63	6
Self-evaluative n = 57	0.57	0.39–0.71	2.03	10
Social n = 56	0.72	0.57–0.83	1.75	12

ICC_2,1 calculation was based on absolute agreement two-way random model (single fixed raters): 0.50–0.75 = moderate reliability; 0.75–0.90 = good reliability; and greater than 0.90 = excellent reliability
