Greater variability in rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) endocranial volume among males than females.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 9 Nov 2022

Colby Abigail E, DeCasien Alex R, Cooper Eve B, Higham James P

Abstract excerpt

The greater male variability (GMV) hypothesis proposes that traits are more variable among males than females, and is supported by numerous empirical studies. Interestingly, GMV is also observed for human brain size and internal brain structure, a pattern which may have implications for sex-biased neurological and psychiatric conditions. A better understanding of neuroanatomical variability in non-human primates...
