Summary of Significant Differences Between Male (n=54) and Female (n=54) Mice^a

	Main effect of Sex	p value	Power	Effect size (Cohen's d)
OF distance traveled, day 1	female>male	0.027	0.604	0.4317
Y-maze, distance traveled	female>male	0.001	0.938	0.6800
Y-maze, % alternation (memory)	male>female	0.044	0.523	0.3921
MWM swim speed, standard trials	female>male	0.003	0.854	0.5856
MWM swim speed, reversal trials	female>male	0.039	0.544	0.4022

^aShown are the behavioral measures in the current experiment for which a significant main effect of sex was found. p values from analyses of variance, power (1 – β), and calculated effect sizes (Cohen's d) are provided. Cohen's d=.

OF, open field; MWM, Morris water maze.
