atmax was estimated as the time of day, on a 24-h clock, at which maximum activity occurred. The value, 24, was added to postmidnight tmax estimates to enable averaging with premidnight times. For example, a mean tmax = 24.5 is 30 min after midnight.

bt1/2 up and t1/2 down are estimated as the time of day, on a 24-h clock, at which half of the maximum activity was achieved, respectively, as activity increased or decreased.

*Significantly less for males relative to females (p < 0.001) and significantly less in the 5.0 and 10.0 EE2 groups (p < 0.050).

Significantly earlier for males relative to females (p < 0.002).

#Significantly earlier for males relative to females (p < 0.001).
