Compositional Profile Plots indicating the relative difference between time-use compositional means of each profile compared to the whole population. The profiles for Lions, Koalas and Ants are compared with Chimpanzees (black). Values on the Y axis represent the log of the ratio between a particular profile mean and the population mean. A score of 0 for any behavior means that, on average, equal time is spent in that behavior by the whole population as by the profile of interest. Positive and negative values represent higher and lower compositional means than the whole population. On the basis of the log-ratio value, the actual ratio between the composition mean of a particular profile and whole population can be calculated. For example the log-ratio value for sedentary time at work for Koalas is 0.81. This means that on average, Koalas are 2.3 times more (exp(0.81)) sedentary at work compared to the whole population. LIPA light physical activity, MVPA moderate to vigorous physical activity, TIB time in bed
