[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
Numerous studies have probed into the intricate web of professional education and its impact on the labor market, but few have dared to venture into the enigmatic nexus between the conferral of Associates degrees in Nursing and the perplexing gyrations of title examiners, abstractors, and searchers in the state of Arizona. Smith et al. in their seminal work demonstrated the undeniable impact of nursing education on the healthcare workforce, while Doe's analysis shed light on the evolving landscape of title examination occupations. However, the synthesis of these two seemingly disparate realms has remained an uncharted statistical territory.
In "Book," the authors find that the demand for nursing professionals is on the rise, resulting in a parallel surge in the conferral of Associates degrees in Nursing across academic institutions. This trend, akin to a wave of optimism sweeping through the healthcare landscape, has caught the attention of statisticians and researchers alike. Concurrently, "Another Book" highlights the intricate world of title examination, abstracting, and searching, underscoring the nuanced skill set required for these professions. The intersection of these two domains forms the crux of our investigation, prompting us to delve deep into the statistical undercurrents that govern their interplay.
Pivoting from the concrete to the speculative, "Fictional Book 1" offers a whimsical take on the mysterious connection between nursing education and the labyrinthine world of title examination. Through the lens of fiction, the narrative explores the possibility of an alternate universe where title examiners and nurses engage in a cosmic dance of professional destinies. This flight of fancy serves as a poignant reminder of the boundless potential for imagination within the confines of statistical inquiry.
As we traverse the literary expanse, "Fictional Book 2" delivers a thrilling account of numerical exploration and adventure, where the protagonists, armed with nothing but their wits and statistical acumen, embark on a quest to unravel the cryptic connection between nursing associate degrees and the numbers game of title examiners, abstractors, and searchers.

Correlation r = 0.7438499 (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 = 0.5533126 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 55.3% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of title examiners, abstractors, and searchers in Arizona) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Associates degrees awarded in Nursing) over the 11 years from 2011 through 2021.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.0087. 0.0086752029113462020000000000
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 0.74 in 0.87% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 115 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 10 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 10 because we have two variables measured over a period of 11 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.

[ 0.26, 0.93 ] 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.
