This study investigates the coefficient of variation (CV) of height of males and females as a measure of inequality. We have collected a data set on corresponding male and female height CVs from 124 populations, spanning the period between the 1840s and 1980s. The results suggest that the R(2) between the two CVs is 0.39, with the male CV being greater, indicating higher plasticity.
本研究调查了男性和女性身高的变异系数（CV），以此作为不平等程度的一种衡量指标。我们收集了一个数据集，涵盖了1840年代至1980年代期间124个人口群体对应的男性和女性身高CV值。结果表明，两个CV值之间的R²为0.39，男性CV值更大，表明可塑性更高。
