  1. ANOVA was performed using Wald chi-square tests. The 95% confidence intervals (CI) around repeatability estimates were generated by performing 1000 parametric bootstrap iterations, and the likelihood ratio test was used to estimate P-values of repeatability distributions. In bold are shown significant traits (P ≤ 0.05) (N = 41, 16 males and 18 females, 7 unsexed).
