AliyaGYN: An Obstetric Tale of Name Popularity and Physician Numbers
[[ABSTRACT]]
In this study, we delved into an obstetric wonderland to explore the relationship between the popularity of the first name Aliya and the number of obstetricians and gynecologists in the state of Oregon. Drawing data from the US Social Security Administration and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, we executed a thorough statistical analysis to uncover any potential correlations between these seemingly unrelated variables.
Our findings revealed an astonishing correlation coefficient of 0.8356438 with a significance level of p < 0.01, spanning the years 2003 to 2020. This compelling association between the name Aliya and the abundance of obstetricians and gynecologists in Oregon prompts us to ponder whether there exists a latent force drawing healthcare professionals towards regions where the name Aliya is more prevalent. It seems that the allure of this name extends beyond its linguistic implications and may be intricately linked with the healthcare landscape.
It appears that the spirit of obstetric and gynecological care may be intertwined with the resonance of the name Aliya, creating a harmonious synergy that elevates the presence of these medical practitioners. As we examine this unanticipated connection, one cannot help but joke, "It seems the name Aliya has a special delivery effect on the physician population!"
Our study contributes to the burgeoning literature on unconventional correlations and reminds us that sometimes, in the realm of statistical associations, an unexpected twist can birth new insights.

[[INTRODUCTION]]
The intersection of obstetrics and nomenclature has long been an underexplored domain in the field of healthcare research. With a twinkle in our statistical eye, we set out to investigate the peculiar relationship between the popularity of the first name Aliya and the proliferation of obstetricians and gynecologists in the picturesque state of Oregon. As we embarked on this curious journey, we couldn't help but think that our study might deliver some unexpected surprises – much like a baby arriving earlier than expected!
Much like an expectant parent eagerly awaiting the arrival of their bundle of joy, researchers often yearn for groundbreaking discoveries that will leave a lasting impression on the scholarly landscape. Our investigation into the association between the popularity of the name Aliya and the abundance of obstetric and gynecological specialists in Oregon aimed to quench this thirst for intellectual adventure, as well as add a touch of levity to the usually serious world of academic research. It's as if we were on a quest to uncover the obstetric mysteries hidden within a name – a veritable “Labor” of statistical love!
Our endeavor was fueled by the intriguing premise that there may be a cosmic connection between the eponymous popularity of Aliya and the presence of medical stewards dedicated to the health and well-being of women in Oregon. The tantalizing allure of potential findings led us to ponder, "Could the name Aliya hold the key to unlocking the dispersal patterns of obstetric and gynecological expertise?" It's almost like we were trying to decode a secret message hidden beneath the folds of a baby blanket – a statistical treasure hunt of sorts!
As we ventured further into this uncharted terrain, one couldn't help but express a wry smile at the sheer audacity of our examination. The prospect of discovering a hidden link between a name and the state's obstetrician and gynecologist population was nothing short of extraordinary. It felt as though our research journey was sprinkled with unexpected humor, much like a diaper changing mishap in the middle of a statistical analysis – a thought that kept us grinning through the corridors of academic inquiry.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
In "Smith et al.," the authors find a positive correlation between the popularity of the first name Aliya and the number of obstetricians and gynecologists in Oregon over the past two decades. The study delves into the intricacies of social naming conventions and explores the potential impact of such nomenclature on healthcare professional distributions.
Diving into the troves of literature on obstetrics, one is reminded of the classic "What to Expect When You're Expecting," a staple for soon-to-be parents eagerly awaiting the arrival of their little one. In a similar vein, our study hoped to offer an unexpected twist to the scholarly landscape – a statistical birthing process, if you will.
On the fiction front, "The Midwife's Confession" and "The Doctor's Baby Secret" present narratives interwoven with the nuances of obstetric care, lending an air of mystery to the enigmatic connection between the name Aliya and the physician population in Oregon. As we ponder the convoluted paths of causality, one can't help but quip, "It seems the name Aliya has quite the 'labor' effect on the obstetrician count – talk about unintended consequences!"
Amidst the academic musings, one cannot overlook the enlightening insights gleaned from social media. A tweet exclaiming, "More Aliyas mean more OB-GYNs – it's practically written in the delivery room stars!" captures the whimsical essence of our findings, shedding light on the unanticipated nature of our statistical discoveries.
In "Doe and Jones," the authors shed light on the potential mechanisms behind this unforeseen correlation, highlighting the need for further investigations into the influence of naming trends on healthcare resources. Our study seeks to contribute to this discourse by infusing a dash of statistical puns and a sprinkle of unexpected correlations, reminding scholars that sometimes, in the realm of academia, a well-timed dad joke can birth new insights. It's as if our research was the obstetrician of statistical discoveries, delivering surprising connections with unparalleled humor and flair.

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 = 0.6983006 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 69.8% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of obstetricians and gynecologists in Oregon) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Popularity of the first name Aliya) over the 18 years from 2003 through 2020.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 1.6E-5. 0.0000157671397737580450000000
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 0.84 in 0.0016% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 63,423 random variables You don't actually need 63 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 17 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 17 because we have two variables measured over a period of 18 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.
[ 0.6, 0.94 ] 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. - 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.
