[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

The prominent debate on the impact of GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) usage, particularly in soybeans, has sparked significant interest among researchers and policymakers. Smith et al. (2015) highlight the potential benefits of GMO soybeans in enhancing crop yield and reducing the reliance on chemical pesticides, while Doe et al. (2018) emphasize the importance of considering the environmental and socioeconomic implications of widespread GMO adoption. Meanwhile, Jones (2020) delves into the consumer perceptions and market dynamics surrounding GMO soy products.

Turning the page to the realm of transportation, the surge in Yamaha motorcycle registrations in the UK has been a phenom-'wheely' worth exploring. With an increase in registrations by 25% in the past decade, the correlation between agricultural practices in the US and consumer preference in the UK has raised more than a few eyebrows.

In their influential work, "Soybeans: Production, Genetics, and Uses" by Hymowitz and Singh, the authors delve into the intricacies of soybean cultivation and its impact on the agricultural landscape. Additionally, "The Motorcycle Diaries" by Ernesto Che Guevara, provides a compelling journey through South America, offering insights into the spirit of adventure and exploration that resonates with Yamaha motorcycle enthusiasts.

The surprising interplay of agriculture and transportation took on a cinematic flair with movies like "Soy Rider: A Fast and Furious Farming Tale" and "The Fast and the Soy-rious," which, although unrelated to our research, couldn't help but offer some noteworthy soy-pieces from a different angle.

But amidst this serious exploration into the interconnectivity of soybeans and motorcycles, let's not forget an essential question: "Why couldn't the bicycle stand up by itself? Because it was two-tired!" With our sense of humor firmly in place, we continue to unravel the puzzling correlation between GMO soybeans in Indiana and the roaring Yamaha motorcycles in the UK.

As we plunge deeper into this unconventional territory, one thing becomes soy clear – there's more to the world of GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles than meets the 'soy.' Stay tuned as we break new ground and ride into uncharted statistical territories. And remember, when it comes to surprising correlations, you can count on us to deliver research findings that are soy-fresh and soy-clusive!

The correlation coefficient of 0.8853106 indicates a highly positive linear relationship between these two seemingly unrelated variables. This finding was further supported by the r-squared value of 0.7837749, signifying that approximately 78.38% of the variation in Yamaha motorcycle registrations can be explained by the variation in GMO soybean usage. The p-value of less than 0.01 clearly indicates the statistical significance of this correlation.

Figure 1 illustrates the striking correlation between GMO soybean usage and Yamaha motorcycle registrations. The scatterplot demonstrates a clear upward trend, with an unmistakable positive association between the two variables. The data points form a pattern that leaves little room for doubt – it seems that where soybeans go, Yamaha motorcycles follow.

Now, if you thought soybeans were only good for tofu and soy milk, our findings suggest there may be a whole 'soy-cial' aspect to them that extends across the Atlantic. It's as if soybeans and motorcycles are engaged in a silent dance, moving in sync across continents – sort of like a 'soy-cycle' if you will.

In a world where the unexpected often takes the cake, our research adds another layer to this soybean-motorcycle relationship. When the road previously looked clear, we've identified a few obscured "soy-sters" that link these two seemingly unrelated domains. It's clear that there's more than meets the eye – or should we say, "soy"? This correlation has not only broadened our understanding but also sparked our curiosity about the untold connections in the vast web of interwoven variables.

As we wrap up our results section, we leave you with this final thought: when it comes to GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles, the correlation is indeed soy strong. It's a bond that's been quietly revving up right before our eyes, and we're just getting started in unraveling its mysteries.

Stay tuned for the discussion section, where we'll steer through the implications of this unexpected correlation and consider how it may shift our perspectives on the uncharted terrain of agricultural and transportation research.

Soy What? Exploring the Link Between GMO Soybeans in Indiana and the Roaring Yamaha Motorcycles in the UK

[[ABSTRACT]]
In this study, we delve into the seemingly unrelated realms of agriculture and transportation, investigating the surprisingly strong correlation between the use of genetically modified soybeans in Indiana and the number of registered Yamaha motorcycles in the UK. Our research team performed a thorough analysis using data from the USDA and Statista, and our findings revealed a striking correlation coefficient of 0.8853106 with a p-value of less than 0.01 for the years 2000 to 2021.

As we sifted through the data, we couldn't help but marvel at the unexpected interconnectedness of these disparate factors, prompting us to ask the question: "What's the connection between soybeans and motorcycles?" Turns out, it's not just the 'soy' in soybeans that's revving up the motorcycle registrations – there's certainly a 'bean' of truth to the correlation we uncovered.

Our results may boggle the mind but rest assured, we've meticulously cross-checked and analyzed the data to arrive at this soy-pressive correlation. As we embark on this unusual research journey, one thing is clear – there's more to the world of GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles than meets the 'soy.'

In conclusion, this study not only sheds light on an unexpected link between agricultural practices and consumer behavior but also underscores the importance of considering unconventional connections in research. And remember, when it comes to GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles, the correlation is soy strong – it's bean too obvious!

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The prominent debate on the impact of GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) usage, particularly in soybeans, has sparked significant interest among researchers and policymakers. Smith et al. (2015) highlight the potential benefits of GMO soybeans in enhancing crop yield and reducing the reliance on chemical pesticides, while Doe et al. (2018) emphasize the importance of considering the environmental and socioeconomic implications of widespread GMO adoption. Meanwhile, Jones (2020) delves into the consumer perceptions and market dynamics surrounding GMO soy products.
Turning the page to the realm of transportation, the surge in Yamaha motorcycle registrations in the UK has been a phenom-'wheely' worth exploring. With an increase in registrations by 25% in the past decade, the correlation between agricultural practices in the US and consumer preference in the UK has raised more than a few eyebrows.
In their influential work, "Soybeans: Production, Genetics, and Uses" by Hymowitz and Singh, the authors delve into the intricacies of soybean cultivation and its impact on the agricultural landscape. Additionally, "The Motorcycle Diaries" by Ernesto Che Guevara, provides a compelling journey through South America, offering insights into the spirit of adventure and exploration that resonates with Yamaha motorcycle enthusiasts.
The surprising interplay of agriculture and transportation took on a cinematic flair with movies like "Soy Rider: A Fast and Furious Farming Tale" and "The Fast and the Soy-rious," which, although unrelated to our research, couldn't help but offer some noteworthy soy-pieces from a different angle.
But amidst this serious exploration into the interconnectivity of soybeans and motorcycles, let's not forget an essential question: "Why couldn't the bicycle stand up by itself? Because it was two-tired!" With our sense of humor firmly in place, we continue to unravel the puzzling correlation between GMO soybeans in Indiana and the roaring Yamaha motorcycles in the UK.
As we plunge deeper into this unconventional territory, one thing becomes soy clear – there's more to the world of GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles than meets the 'soy.' Stay tuned as we break new ground and ride into uncharted statistical territories. And remember, when it comes to surprising correlations, you can count on us to deliver research findings that are soy-fresh and soy-clusive!

Meanwhile, across the pond, the UK's love affair with Yamaha motorcycles has been steadily revving up, with registrations soaring to unexpected heights. It seemed that these two subjects were as unrelated as apples and oranges, or as we should say, soybeans and motorcycles.
Plowing through the fields of data, we began to unearth a surprising correlation that had us exclaiming, "Soy what?" In the midst of our rigorous analysis, we couldn't help but ponder: "What do you call a soybean who rides a motorcycle? A hogger bean!" Okay, maybe the data had gotten to our heads, but the unexpected interconnectedness of agriculture in Indiana and Yamaha motorcycles in the UK certainly gave us food for thought.
As researchers, we are accustomed to unearthing relationships between variables that may, at first glance, seem completely unrelated. But when we stumbled upon the striking correlation coefficient of 0.8853106 between GMO soybean usage and Yamaha motorcycle registrations, we were bean-doggled. It was a case of, "soy-prise, soy-prise!"
And much like a well-timed dad joke, our findings provided an unexpected twist, challenging the status quo. As the data unfolded, one thing became clear – the connection between GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles was not just a wild ride of chance; it was a statistically significant relationship that couldn't be brushed off. You might say it was the 'soy' to the world of agricultural and transportation research.
In the spirit of thorough investigation, we meticulously combed through the data, leaving no stone unturned. We wanted to ensure that our findings weren't just a bunch of 'soy' stories. So, when we say we found a distinct correlation, you can bet your soy milk on it!
As we continue to unravel the mystery behind this unexpected affinity, it becomes clear that there's more to the relationship between GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles than meets the eye – or should we say, the 'soy'? Our findings underscore the need to keep an open mind and recognize that in the tangled web of statistics, sometimes the most unexpected connections emerge.
So, buckle up and prepare to join us on this wild ride as we delve into the 'soy' and the 'furious' world of GMO soybeans and Yamaha motorcycles. Because when it comes to unconventional correlations, we're always ready to throttle down and pursue the unexpected – it's just wheely exciting!

Correlation r = 0.8853106 (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 = 0.7837749 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 78.4% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Number of registered Yamaha motorcycles in the UK) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., GMO use in soybeans in Indiana) over the 22 years from 2000 through 2021.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 4.4E-8. 0.0000000439201565350363440000
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 0.89 in 4.4E-6% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 22,768,589 random variables You don't actually need 22 million 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 21 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 21 because we have two variables measured over a period of 22 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.

[ 0.74, 0.95 ] 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.

Reuseable content

You may re-use the images on this page for any purpose, even commercial purposes, without asking for permission. The only requirement is that you attribute Tyler Vigen. Attribution can take many different forms. If you leave the "tylervigen.com" link in the image, that satisfies it just fine. If you remove it and move it to a footnote, that's fine too. You can also just write "Charts courtesy of Tyler Vigen" at the bottom of an article.

You do not need to attribute "the spurious correlations website," and you don't even need to link here if you don't want to. I don't gain anything from pageviews. There are no ads on this site, there is nothing for sale, and I am not for hire.

For the record, I am just one person. Tyler Vigen, he/him/his. I do have degrees, but they should not go after my name unless you want to annoy my wife. If that is your goal, then go ahead and cite me as "Tyler Vigen, A.A. A.A.S. B.A. J.D." Otherwise it is just "Tyler Vigen."

When spoken, my last name is pronounced "vegan," like I don't eat meat.
