First two columns: Average correlation (absolute value of R = inner product) and angle (Arccosine of |R|) between the original direction of change and its bootstrapped estimation (based on 100 bootstraps of the original groups). Next columns: Correlation (below the diagonal R = inner product and above the diagonal angle = arccosine of |R|) of vectors of changes due to muscular dystrophy in females (Dystro F) and males (Dystro M), sexual dimorphism in B10 mice (Sex B10) and dystrophic mice (sex mdx), and plastic response to food consistency in B6 mice (HF-SF B6). In bold significant probability (P > 0.99, |R| = 0.651).
