Content of review 1, reviewed on October 12, 2020

I think the title is too long, but it is also very clear. The abstract is unstructured but appropiate. I imagine the journal required it in this way. The main aspects of teh paper appear in the abstract (i.e., background, objective, methodology, results and conclusions). I expected more details about the mains conclusions in this resume. The references are recent and correct.

I consider it is a good introduction. The introduction is divided into sections to facilitate the understanding. Moreover, authors provide us statistical data about the prevalence and impact of the studied theme. At the end of the introduction the objectives of the research are well-written. In addition, authors state the novelty of their research.

The Data and Method section is deep and correct. In this section authors explain us the details about the data collection, the measures and the statistical analysis. Another positive aspect is the use of covariates to better understand the results.

The result section is well performed. The main results are deeply described. I think it is positive to use the effect size because it is a measure very required in papers. The use of figures and tables is also positive and helpful.

The discussion is according to the research objectives and finding. Authors support their discussion in the available literature and offer a critical approach. In addition, the main strength and limitations are presented in an especial section. The conclusions are appropriate and it is included the implications of the research. It is important to mention the practical implication of our research.
