[[METHODOLOGY]]

Data Collection:
The data utilized in this study were derived from publicly available sources, primarily the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Statista. Information regarding annual yogurt consumption per capita was obtained from the USDA's Food Availability Data System, while the annual count of part-time employees in the United States was sourced from Statista's extensive collection of labor market statistics. The time frame for data collection and analysis spanned from 1990 to 2021, allowing for a comprehensive examination of trends and fluctuations over a substantial period.

Measurement of Yogurt Consumption:
The quantification of yogurt consumption per capita was based on the volume of yogurt products available for consumption within the United States, as reported by the USDA. This measurement encompassed various forms of yogurt, including regular, Greek, and other specialized varieties, thereby offering a comprehensive representation of the nation's yogurt consumption habits. The data were standardized to facilitate comparison across different years and to ensure an accurate assessment of the annual yogurt consumption pattern.

Assessment of Part-Time Employment:
The annual count of part-time employees in the United States was meticulously documented and verified based on Statista's labor market statistics. Part-time employment was defined as individuals who worked fewer hours than the standard full-time schedule, typically categorized as working less than 35 hours per week. This classification allowed for a focused analysis of the part-time labor force and its potential correlation with yogurt consumption, offering valuable insights into the dynamics of the employment landscape.

Statistical Analysis:
The statistical analysis commenced with the computation of the correlation coefficient between annual yogurt consumption and the count of part-time employees. Through the utilization of robust statistical techniques, including Pearson's correlation coefficient, the strength and direction of the relationship between these variables were elucidated. Additionally, a significance test was performed to evaluate the statistical significance of the observed correlation, employing a predetermined level of significance (p < 0.01) to ascertain the reliability of the findings.

Control Variables:
To mitigate the influence of extraneous factors that could confound the relationship between yogurt consumption and part-time employment, several control variables were considered. These encompassed economic indicators, demographic characteristics, and other relevant variables that could plausibly impact both yogurt consumption and the prevalence of part-time employment. The inclusion of control variables aimed to enhance the robustness of the analysis and to discern the unique contribution of yogurt consumption to the annual count of part-time employees.

Sensitivity Analysis:
Sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess the stability and consistency of the observed correlation under varying conditions and assumptions. This rigorous examination served to validate the reliability of the findings and ascertain the resilience of the identified relationship between yogurt consumption and part-time employment across different analytical scenarios.

Limitations:
It is imperative to acknowledge the limitations inherent in this study, including potential data inaccuracies, unobserved variables, and the inherent constraints of observational research. Although diligent efforts were exerted to ensure the accuracy and rigor of the analysis, the presence of unmeasured factors may influence the observed association between yogurt consumption and the count of part-time employees.

Overall, the methodological approach adopted in this study aimed to unveil the intriguing relationship between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States, paving the way for a deeper understanding of the unanticipated interplay between dietary preferences and labor market dynamics.

[[RESULTS]]

The analysis of the data gleaned from the USDA and Statista revealed a striking correlation between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States from 1990 to 2021. The correlation coefficient, a robust 0.9358507, indicated a remarkably strong positive association between these seemingly disparate variables.

Our findings suggest that perhaps there's more to yogurt than meets the eye. Could it be that the creamy elixir of cultured milk and friendly bacteria wields an unexpected influence over the labor market, coaxing individuals into part-time employment with promises of probiotic enlightenment? Or are part-time employees merely seeking respite from the daily grind in the tart embrace of a probiotic wonderland? The answer remains as elusive as the perfect swirl in a cup of Greek yogurt.

The r-squared value of 0.8758166 further cemented the robustness of the relationship uncovered by our analysis. It appears that the annual count of part-time employees in the United States can be explained by yogurt consumption to a considerable extent, much like the way a spoonful of yogurt can inexplicably explain away a multitude of dietary sins.

Notably, the p-value less than 0.01 provided strong evidence against the null hypothesis, indicating that the association we observed is highly unlikely to have occurred by chance alone. One could say that the probability of this correlation arising serendipitously is as low as finding a berry in the last spoonful of yogurt at the bottom of the cup.

Furthermore, the scatterplot (Fig. 1) depicting the relationship between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees vividly illustrates the remarkably close companionship of these two variables. The data points dance across the plot like grains of granola in a sea of creamy goodness, painting a picture of harmony that defies conventional wisdom.

In summary, our research uncovered a substantial and unlikely connection between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States. While the precise mechanisms behind this association remain enigmatic, our findings challenge the traditional boundaries of dietary influence and labor market dynamics. The mystery of yogurt's clandestine influence over part-time employment beckons further investigation, enticing scholars to delve into realms replete with tangy intrigue.

[[DISCUSSION]]

The remarkably strong positive association between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States, unveiled through our analysis, conjures a veritable cornucopia of whimsical and wondrous possibilities. Our findings appear to substantiate the inklings of prior researchers and enthusiasts that there may indeed be a clandestine link between the quaffing of yogurt and the ebb and flow of part-time employment.

In accordance with the literature review, which subtly raised the question of whether yogurt might be the unsung hero in the quest for work-life balance, our results hint at an uncharted frontier where tart confections wield unforeseen influence over labor market dynamics. Could it be that the creamy elixir of cultured milk and friendly bacteria whispers tantalizing promises of probiotic enlightenment, coaxing individuals into embracing a part-time work schedule? Or perhaps part-time employees, weary from the daily grind, seek solace in the tart embrace of a probiotic wonderland, finding respite from the toils of full-time employment.

The robust correlation coefficient and r-squared value unearthed in our analysis serve as a resounding endorsement of the tantalizing link between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees. Much like the way a spoonful of yogurt can inexplicably absolve a multitude of dietary sins, our findings hint at the curious notion that the annual count of part-time employees can be similarly explained by yogurt consumption. This echoes the oft-quoted aphorism, "Yogurt, in its enigmatic wisdom, may well be the spoon that stirs the labor market soup."

Indeed, the accompanying p-value, less than 0.01, provides compelling evidence against the null hypothesis, lending credence to the notion that the association we uncovered is as likely to have occurred by chance as stumbling upon a wayward blueberry in the last spoonful of yogurt at the bottom of the cup.

In conclusion, our research has exposed a delightful and improbable connection between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States. Whilst the precise mechanisms underlying this intriguing association continue to elude us, our findings beckon further exploration into the tantalizingly tangy influence of yogurt on the labyrinthine corridors of part-time employment. As we contemplate the creamy mysteries that lay dormant within this dairy delicacy, we are called to embrace the ever-enticing quest for knowledge in realms replete with tart intrigue.

Yogurt Yields Yields: Yeasty Yummies and Yearly Yields of Part-Time Employees in the United States

[[ABSTRACT]]
This study explores the unlikely link between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States from 1990 to 2021. Drawing on data from USDA and Statista, our research team unlocked a correlation coefficient of 0.9358507, indicating a strong positive association between these two seemingly unrelated variables (p < 0.01). While the mechanisms underpinning this connection remain shrouded in mystery, our findings suggest that perhaps there's more to yogurt than meets the eye. Could the live cultures within yogurt be quietly influencing the labor market? Or are part-time employees simply seeking solace in the soothing tang of probiotic goodness? This research raises more questions than it answers, but one thing is certain: the curiously close companionship of yogurt consumption and part-time employment warrants further investigation and perhaps a sprinkle of granola for good measure.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
INTRODUCTION
The link between dietary choices and economic indicators has long been a subject of fascination, and perhaps none more unlikely than the seemingly enigmatic relationship between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States. While the consumption of yogurt has been associated with various health benefits, including improved digestion and strengthened immune function, its influence on the labor market has remained a rather unexpected area of exploration.
Throughout the years, researchers have scrutinized a myriad of factors that could potentially impact the employment landscape, from technological advancements to policy shifts. However, the revelation of a substantial correlation between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees from 1990 to 2021 has not only raised eyebrows but incited a fervent curiosity amongst scholars and enthusiasts alike. This striking association has compelled us to delve deeper into the interplay between seemingly unrelated domains and to scrutinize the underlying factors governing this peculiar bond.
This paper seeks to unravel the enigma surrounding the curious coexistence of yeasty yummies and yearly yields of part-time employees in the United States. By harnessing the power of statistical analysis and leveraging data from reputable sources, our aim is to shed light on the clandestine connection between these variables and to provoke thought on the potential implications of such an unexpected correlation.
As we embark on this journey of exploration and inquiry, it is our fervent hope that this endeavor will not only satiate our hunger for knowledge but also inspire further investigations into the unexplored realms of food-economy dynamics. Let us embark on this odyssey of discovery with a spoonful of skepticism and a dollop of enthusiasm, for in the world of research, one never knows what unexpected flavors may emerge.

[[RESULTS]]
The analysis of the data gleaned from the USDA and Statista revealed a striking correlation between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States from 1990 to 2021. The correlation coefficient, a robust 0.9358507, indicated a remarkably strong positive association between these seemingly disparate variables.
Our findings suggest that perhaps there's more to yogurt than meets the eye. Could it be that the creamy elixir of cultured milk and friendly bacteria wields an unexpected influence over the labor market, coaxing individuals into part-time employment with promises of probiotic enlightenment? Or are part-time employees merely seeking respite from the daily grind in the tart embrace of a probiotic wonderland? The answer remains as elusive as the perfect swirl in a cup of Greek yogurt.
The r-squared value of 0.8758166 further cemented the robustness of the relationship uncovered by our analysis. It appears that the annual count of part-time employees in the United States can be explained by yogurt consumption to a considerable extent, much like the way a spoonful of yogurt can inexplicably explain away a multitude of dietary sins.
Notably, the p-value less than 0.01 provided strong evidence against the null hypothesis, indicating that the association we observed is highly unlikely to have occurred by chance alone. One could say that the probability of this correlation arising serendipitously is as low as finding a berry in the last spoonful of yogurt at the bottom of the cup.
Furthermore, the scatterplot (Fig. 1) depicting the relationship between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees vividly illustrates the remarkably close companionship of these two variables. The data points dance across the plot like grains of granola in a sea of creamy goodness, painting a picture of harmony that defies conventional wisdom.
In summary, our research uncovered a substantial and unlikely connection between yogurt consumption and the annual count of part-time employees in the United States. While the precise mechanisms behind this association remain enigmatic, our findings challenge the traditional boundaries of dietary influence and labor market dynamics. The mystery of yogurt's clandestine influence over part-time employment beckons further investigation, enticing scholars to delve into realms replete with tangy intrigue.

[[CONCLUSION]]

In conclusion, the reverberations of yogurt consumption in the labor market are not to be underestimated. Our research has unveiled a robust correlation between the annual count of part-time employees in the United States and the consumption of this curiously versatile dairy product. While some may be quick to dismiss this relationship as a mere coincidence, the evidence stands as thick and creamy as full-fat Greek yogurt.

These findings beg the question: is there a symbiotic relationship between those seeking part-time employment and the luscious tang of yogurt? One cannot help but wonder if the allure of flexible work arrangements is enhanced by the digestive ease and tantalizing taste of yogurt. Could it be that the lure of part-time work is not only the promise of work-life balance but also the promise of a parfait balance of fruit and yogurt?

While our study has shed light on this unlikely connection, it is clear that there is much more to unpack. Future research could explore the impact of different yogurt flavors and textures on employment trends. Perhaps a deeper dive into the world of fro-yo and its impact on gig economy trends is also warranted. After all, the terrain of dairy-based labor economics is as rich and unexplored as a spoonful of artisanal yogurt.

In the meantime, our findings serve as a reminder that in the tapestry of the labor market, even the most unexpected ingredients can play a substantial role. As for yogurt and part-time employment, it seems that they are inextricably intertwined, much like the fruit in a perfectly stirred cup of yogurt. However, for now, it might be wise to refrain from jumping to hasty conclusions and instead savor the tangy mysteries that await us in future research endeavors.

Therefore, it is our firm conclusion that no further research in this area is warranted. The findings are as stable as a well-set yogurt, and it is time to curtail further exploration in this domain. The yogurt has spoken, and its word is as solid as a well-crafted parfait.

Correlation r = 0.9358507 (Pearson correlation coefficient)
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 = 0.8758166 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 87.6% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Annual count of part-time employees in the United States) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Yogurt consumption) over the 32 years from 1990 through 2021.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 4.0E-15. 0.0000000000000039591472926801
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 0.94 in 4.0E-13% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 252,579,640,532,409 random variables You don't actually need 252 trillion 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 31 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 31 because we have two variables measured over a period of 32 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.

[ 0.87, 0.97 ] 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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Y-axis doesn't start at zero: I truncated the Y-axes of the graph above. I also used a line graph, which makes the visual connection stand out more than it deserves. Nothing against line graphs. They are great at telling a story when you have linear data! But visually it is deceptive because the only data is at the points on the graph, not the lines on the graph. In between each point, the data could have been doing anything. Like going for a random walk by itself!
    Mathematically what I showed is true, but it is intentionally misleading. Below is the same chart but with both Y-axes starting at zero.
