[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
In their study, Smith and Doe (2015) examined the correlation between Global Commercial Vehicle Production and various industry factors, finding a significant relationship between production rates and economic indicators. Conversely, Jones (2018) explored the demographics of college faculty in the United States, focusing on areas with unique characteristics that may impact faculty distribution. These serious studies lay the groundwork for our investigation into the unexpected connection between commercial vehicles and psychology professors in the state of Montana.
Turning to non-fiction literature, "The Psychology of Transportation" by Jane M. Doe discusses the psychological aspects of driving and the impact of vehicles on human behavior. Moreover, "Global Economic Trends" by John Smith provides insights into the commercial vehicle industry's place in the global economy. These scholarly works offer valuable context for the intersection of our seemingly unrelated variables.
Transitioning to the realm of fiction, "Drive Me Crazy" by A. Wheeler follows the story of a quirky psychologist who finds herself entangled in a web of commercial vehicle mysteries. The whimsical novel "The Road Less Traveled" by M. Tires explores the existential journey of a psychology professor who embarks on a cross-country trip, encountering commercial vehicles and introspective moments along the way. These imaginative narratives serve as a lighthearted backdrop to our exploration of the unlikely correlation between global commercial vehicle production and the psychology professor population in Montana.
Expanding our search for insight, we perused miscellaneous sources such as fortune cookies, horoscopes, and even grocery store receipts. While the fortune cookies offered cryptic messages about "driving toward unexpected connections," the horoscopes tantalizingly hinted at "aligning professional paths with industrial influences." As for the grocery store receipts, they simply reminded us to stock up on snacks for an extended research journey. While these unconventional sources did little to illuminate our inquiry, they did provide comedic relief and a healthy dose of skepticism.
In summary, the wealth of literature surrounding our peculiar research question highlights the intricate interplay of serious scholarship, creative storytelling, and unorthodox humor. As we delve into the statistical nuances and scholarly discourse, we keep in mind the words of wisdom from an ancient philosopher: "The journey of a thousand correlations begins with a single dataset." With this philosophical guidance and a touch of levity, we embark on our endeavor to unravel the mysteries of commercial vehicles and psychology professors, armed with statistical tools and a penchant for puns.

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.7688877 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 76.9% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of college psychology teachers in Montana) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Global Commercial Vehicle Production) over the 17 years from 2003 through 2019.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 3.8E-6. 0.0000038459308739033440000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as -0.88 in 0.00038% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 260,015 random variables You don't actually need 260 thousand variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 16 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 16 because we have two variables measured over a period of 17 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ -0.96, -0.68 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is. - Inverted Y-axis: I inverted the Y-axis on the chart above so that the lines would move together. This is visually pleasing, but not at all intuitive. Below is a line graph that does not invert the Y-axis and starts at zero.
