Planet to Purchase: Unraveling the Interstellar Influence on Retail Satisfaction
[[ABSTRACT]]
The gravitational pull of celestial bodies and consumer satisfaction have long been an enigma in the field of retail economics. In this novel study, we endeavor to shed light on the perplexing relationship between the distance between Saturn and Mars and customer contentment with the beloved retail giant, TJ Maxx. Through meticulous analysis using data from Astropy and the American Customer Satisfaction Index, we calculate a correlation coefficient that is downright astronomical: 0.5359833, with a p-value that is out of this world at < 0.05.
Our results indicate a surprisingly significant connection between the astronomical distance and the stellar shopping experience at TJ Maxx. We also provide evidence supporting the theory that Saturn's rings and the discount racks at TJ Maxx share a similar allure. It seems that when Mars is closer to Saturn, customers are more likely to experience a sense of out-of-this-world satisfaction while bargain hunting at TJ Maxx. This correlation truly reaches for the stars!
With these findings, we encourage retailers to consider celestial events as potential influencers of consumer behavior. Additionally, we prompt astronomers and retail analysts alike to join forces to further explore this cosmic correlation. As we ponder the mysteries of the universe and consumer preferences, it seems that the cosmos may have more influence on our everyday choices than we previously thought. It's a retail revelation of astronomical proportions!

[[INTRODUCTION]]
The study of consumer behavior has traversed many fields, but the intersection of retail satisfaction with celestial phenomena is a relatively uncharted territory. As researchers, we often aim for groundbreaking insights, but in this study, we take this statement quite literally. With statistical rigor and a sprinkle of stardust, we investigate the connection between the distance separating Saturn and Mars and the satisfaction of customers at TJ Maxx.
Now, onto the delightful art of statistics. Like the orbits of celestial bodies, data points can often revolve around each other, seeking harmony. As we embark on this astral adventure in retail economics, we hope to shed light not only on the gravitational pull of celestial bodies but also on the pull of shoppers towards discounted goods. And speaking of pulls, it's almost as if these findings can be described as 'out-of-this-world'!
The analysis of our findings suggests that as the distance between Saturn and Mars varies, so does the satisfaction of customers at TJ Maxx. It's as if the planets are not just aligning, but also influencing the shopping experiences of eager customers. Tackling the correlation between space and retail may seem like quite the astronomical task, and our findings prove that it's not just a phase.
Statistically speaking, our results reveal a significant correlation, reaching a coefficient that is simply stellar. It's almost as if the gravitational pull of Saturn and Mars is reflected in the data, drawing a parallel with the way consumers are gravitated towards great deals at TJ Maxx. It's like the statistical equivalent of a cosmic dance between two variables.
As we navigate through uncharted territory, it's important to stay grounded while aiming for the stars. Our findings are not just informative but also bring a sense of cosmic wonder to the world of retail economics. After all, who would have thought that the movements of planets could have such an impact on our shopping experiences? It's almost as if the secrets of customer satisfaction were written in the stars. And that's no small feat; it's a phenomenon of galactic proportions!
We step into a new realm, where the realm of retail is intertwined with the movements of celestial bodies. Our findings beckon retailers to look to the heavens for insights while reminding us that in the vast expanse of the cosmos, the influence of celestial mechanics may reach further than we ever imagined. It's definitely a case of taking science to the checkout counter!

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
In "Planetary Alignment and Consumer Behavior: A Statistical Analysis," Smith et al. delve into the intriguing relationship between planetary positions and customer preferences. Their study explores the impact of the alignment of Saturn and Mars on consumer behavior, uncovering a pattern that is as fascinating as it is unexpected. This planetary placement is no small matter; it turns out that it might just be the gravitational force behind consumer satisfaction levels.
Doe and colleagues, in "Galactic Influences on Retail: An Interstellar Perspective," take an in-depth look at the effects of celestial events on retail habits. By analyzing data from various retail chains and juxtaposing these with astronomical events, they bring to light the cosmic sway on earthly consumer decisions. It seems that the stars have more to do with shopping choices than meets the eye – or telescope.
Further supporting this cosmic connection, Jones et al., in "Astronomy of Bargain Hunting," examine the correlation between planetary distances and discounted retail environments. Their findings suggest a striking parallel between the cosmic dance of planets and the dance of eager shoppers around discount racks. It's almost like a retail 'big bang,' where the birth of stellar bargains creates a universe of consumer satisfaction.
Fictional works such as "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams and "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan offer imaginative perspectives on the vastness of the universe. While not directly related to retail economics, these works tantalizingly hint at the cosmic mysteries that may influence human behavior. It's as if the answer to the ultimate question of retail satisfaction really could be found in a literary intergalactic journey.
Now, diving into social media, a tweet from @StellarShopper reads, "Feeling nebulous about shopping today – maybe it's the planet positions! #RetailAstrology." This highlights a trend where consumers playfully attribute their shopping moods to celestial events, emphasizing a potential linkage between the ethereal and the earthly in retail satisfaction. It seems that even in the realm of social media, shoppers are reaching for the stars – quite literally!
In "The Martian" by Andy Weir and "Saturn Run" by John Sandford, the authors craft thrilling tales set on distant planets. Although these books are purely fictional, their emphasis on the allure and mystery of outer space invokes a sense of wonder and curiosity that may extend to how consumers approach the retail environment. It's almost as if the intrigue of space exploration could somehow translate to the exploration of store aisles.
The joke "Why did the astronaut break up with his girlfriend? Because he needed space" seems strangely relevant here. Just as the astronaut needed space, it seems that customers, too, seek their own kind of space – aisle space, shelf space, or perhaps even planetary space – to find satisfaction in their shopping experiences. So, when it comes to understanding consumer behavior, it appears that distance really can make the heart grow fonder – and the wallet lighter!

We embraced data like an astronaut embraces the vacuum of space, carefully selecting and verifying information to ensure the reliability of our findings.
Once we had our celestial and retail data in hand, we ventured into the statistical unknown, braving the meteor shower of numbers and equations. With the precision of an astronomer tracking a comet, we calculated the correlation coefficient between the distance from Saturn to Mars and the customer satisfaction index for TJ Maxx. Merging the world of economics with the wonders of the cosmos, we applied a variety of statistical analyses that would make even the most seasoned statistician starry-eyed.
Our method wasn't just about reaching for the stars; it also involved traversing through the statistical galaxy, navigating through regression models, and conducting hypothesis testing. With the finesse of a cosmonaut landing on a distant planet, we explored the relationship between our variables, aiming to uncover insights that were truly out of this world. We also employed advanced techniques to control for potential confounding variables, ensuring that our results shone as brightly as the constellations in the night sky.
As we delved deeper into the data, we couldn't help but marvel at the cosmic coincidence of our findings. The correlation coefficient that emerged mirrored the alignment of planets, reaching a significance level that would make even the most hardened skeptic do a double take. Our statistical methods weren't just about crunching numbers; they were about revealing the cosmic symphony of data points, each one singing the praises of our celestial-retail connection.
In navigating the interstellar landscape of statistical analysis, we sought to illuminate the intersection of planetary positions and customer contentment. Our methodology pushed the boundaries of traditional research, proving that when it comes to uncovering cosmic correlations in retail, statistical analysis is truly the final frontier. And just like the orbit of a planet, our methods revolved around precision, rigor, and the occasional space pun for good measure.

We also provide evidence supporting the theory that Saturn's rings and the discount racks at TJ Maxx share a similar allure. It seems that when Mars is closer to Saturn, customers are more likely to experience a sense of out-of-this-world satisfaction while bargain hunting at TJ Maxx. This correlation truly reaches for the stars!
With these findings, we encourage retailers to consider celestial events as potential influencers of consumer behavior. Additionally, we prompt astronomers and retail analysts alike to join forces to further explore this cosmic correlation. As we ponder the mysteries of the universe and consumer preferences, it seems that the cosmos may have more influence on our everyday choices than we previously thought. It's a retail revelation of astronomical proportions!
[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
In "Planetary Alignment and Consumer Behavior: A Statistical Analysis," Smith et al. delve into the intriguing relationship between planetary positions and customer preferences. Their study explores the impact of the alignment of Saturn and Mars on consumer behavior, uncovering a pattern that is as fascinating as it is unexpected. This planetary placement is no small matter; it turns out that it might just be the gravitational force behind consumer satisfaction levels.
Doe and colleagues, in "Galactic Influences on Retail: An Interstellar Perspective," take an in-depth look at the effects of celestial events on retail habits. By analyzing data from various retail chains and juxtaposing these with astronomical events, they bring to light the cosmic sway on earthly consumer decisions. It seems that the stars have more to do with shopping choices than meets the eye – or telescope.
Further supporting this cosmic connection, Jones et al., in "Astronomy of Bargain Hunting," examine the correlation between planetary distances and discounted retail environments. Their findings suggest a striking parallel between the cosmic dance of planets and the dance of eager shoppers around discount racks. It's almost like a retail 'big bang,' where the birth of stellar bargains creates a universe of consumer satisfaction.
Fictional works such as "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams and "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan offer imaginative perspectives on the vastness of the universe. While not directly related to retail economics, these works tantalizingly hint at the cosmic mysteries that may influence human behavior. It's as if the answer to the ultimate question of retail satisfaction really could be found in a literary intergalactic journey.
Now, diving into social media, a tweet from @StellarShopper reads, "Feeling nebulous about shopping today – maybe it's the planet positions! #RetailAstrology." This highlights a trend where consumers playfully attribute their shopping moods to celestial events, emphasizing a potential linkage between the ethereal and the earthly in retail satisfaction. It seems that even in the realm of social media, shoppers are reaching for the stars – quite literally!
In "The Martian" by Andy Weir and "Saturn Run" by John Sandford, the authors craft thrilling tales set on distant planets. Although these books are purely fictional, their emphasis on the allure and mystery of outer space invokes a sense of wonder and curiosity that may extend to how consumers approach the retail environment. It's almost as if the intrigue of space exploration could somehow translate to the exploration of store aisles.
The joke "Why did the astronaut break up with his girlfriend? Because he needed space" seems strangely relevant here. Just as the astronaut needed space, it seems that customers, too, seek their own kind of space – aisle space, shelf space, or perhaps even planetary space – to find satisfaction in their shopping experiences. So, when it comes to understanding consumer behavior, it appears that distance really can make the heart grow fonder – and the wallet lighter!
[[RESULTS]]
The analysis of the data revealed a positively striking correlation between the distance separating Saturn and Mars and customer satisfaction at TJ Maxx. Our research found a correlation coefficient of 0.5359833, indicating a moderately strong relationship between these celestial distances and retail contentment. It's as if the cosmic dance of the planets has a direct influence on the shopping joy experienced by consumers, which is quite astronomical!
To put it in astronomical terms, this correlation is not merely a coincidence but rather a celestial phenomenon. It seems that when Saturn and Mars are snugly nestled or distantly apart in their orbits, the satisfaction levels of shoppers at TJ Maxx mirror these planetary movements. Our statistical analysis shows that this correlation is not just a random deviation but rather a data-driven alignment of galactic proportions.
Our findings are supported by additional statistical indicators, including an r-squared value of 0.2872781, signifying that approximately 28.73% of the variance in customer satisfaction at TJ Maxx can be attributed to the cosmic proximity of Saturn and Mars. This finding is truly out of this world!
The p-value of < 0.05 further solidifies our results, indicating that the observed correlation is unlikely to have occurred by mere chance. It's as if statistical significance has traveled from the far reaches of the universe to validate our cosmic retail connection. Our findings encourage us to look beyond just the earthbound factors and embrace the cosmic interplay of variables at play.
In Fig. 1, our scatterplot illustrates the unmistakable pattern of the correlation between these celestial distances and customer satisfaction at TJ Maxx.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
The study of consumer behavior has traversed many fields, but the intersection of retail satisfaction with celestial phenomena is a relatively uncharted territory. As researchers, we often aim for groundbreaking insights, but in this study, we take this statement quite literally. With statistical rigor and a sprinkle of stardust, we investigate the connection between the distance separating Saturn and Mars and the satisfaction of customers at TJ Maxx.
Now, onto the delightful art of statistics. Like the orbits of celestial bodies, data points can often revolve around each other, seeking harmony. As we embark on this astral adventure in retail economics, we hope to shed light not only on the gravitational pull of celestial bodies but also on the pull of shoppers towards discounted goods. And speaking of pulls, it's almost as if these findings can be described as 'out-of-this-world'!
The analysis of our findings suggests that as the distance between Saturn and Mars varies, so does the satisfaction of customers at TJ Maxx. It's as if the planets are not just aligning, but also influencing the shopping experiences of eager customers. Tackling the correlation between space and retail may seem like quite the astronomical task, and our findings prove that it's not just a phase.
Statistically speaking, our results reveal a significant correlation, reaching a coefficient that is simply stellar. It's almost as if the gravitational pull of Saturn and Mars is reflected in the data, drawing a parallel with the way consumers are gravitated towards great deals at TJ Maxx. It's like the statistical equivalent of a cosmic dance between two variables.
As we navigate through uncharted territory, it's important to stay grounded while aiming for the stars. Our findings are not just informative but also bring a sense of cosmic wonder to the world of retail economics. After all, who would have thought that the movements of planets could have such an impact on our shopping experiences? It's almost as if the secrets of customer satisfaction were written in the stars. And that's no small feat; it's a phenomenon of galactic proportions!
We step into a new realm, where the realm of retail is intertwined with the movements of celestial bodies. Our findings beckon retailers to look to the heavens for insights while reminding us that in the vast expanse of the cosmos, the influence of celestial mechanics may reach further than we ever imagined. It's definitely a case of taking science to the checkout counter!

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 = 0.2872781 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 28.7% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Customer satisfaction with TJ Maxx) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The distance between Saturn and Mars) over the 14 years from 2007 through 2020.
p < 0.05, which statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.048. 0.0481984579733704400000000000
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 0.54 in 4.8% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 21 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 13 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 13 because we have two variables measured over a period of 14 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.
[ 0.01, 0.83 ] 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.
