From: Female mice exhibit less overall variance, with a higher proportion of structured variance, than males at multiple timescales of continuous body temperature and locomotive activity records

Males exhibit less day-to-day similarity than females. Mean and SD (thick line with shaded surround) of CBT A, B and LA E, F for males (red) and females (blue) of DTW distance between successive days. Males show higher within individual, day-to-day distance than females (C, G). This distance is slightly reduced but remains significant between the sexes when each individual’s distances are divided by their mean SD (D, H). This finding suggests that males had higher day-to-day variability within individuals, and less proportional structure, than females. *Indicates significant difference.
