[[METHODOLOGY]]

To uncover the elusive links between YouTube video titles and the respiratory therapy workforce, our methodology danced on a fine line between cutting-edge data analysis and a rather geeky obsession with space puns. As the saying goes, "To boldly go where no YouTube title has gone before!" Our journey began with the meticulous extraction and categorization of SciShow Space video titles from the vast expanse of the internet. The AI framework tasked with this monumental mission was programmed with an insatiable appetite for humor and an acute sense of pun-detection. It meticulously dissected each title to discern the wit, charm, and cosmic allure that could captivate even the most stoic of stargazers.

Once our AI assistant had finished analyzing an astronomical number of video titles, we turned our attention to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Armed with an infinite supply of coffee and a propensity for exuberant high-fives, our team scoured through labor data to unearth the precise count of respiratory therapists in the tranquil surroundings of Oregon. If only our AI assistant could also fold laundry, it would have made our lives a whole lot easier.

Next, we employed sophisticated statistical techniques with the precision of a laser-guided telescope to unearth potential correlations between the quality of SciShow Space video titles and the workforce dynamics of respiratory therapists in Oregon. Our analysis required more coffee than the crew aboard the starship Enterprise. We meticulously calculated correlation coefficients, p-values, confidence intervals, and enough dad jokes to fill a whole galaxy. After all, as we discovered in our research, laughter truly is the best medicine, especially for those who spend their days helping others breathe easier.

Finally, we engaged in the complex process of model testing and validation to verify the robustness of our findings. This involved validating our AI assistant's humor radar, cross-referencing with known galactic events, and double-checking every statistical maneuver with the utmost care. Yet amidst the data crunching and pun-derful quips, a single truth remained as clear as a night sky adorned with twinkling stars: the connection between SciShow Space video titles and the respiratory therapy workforce in Oregon was more than just a mere cosmic coincidence; it was a gravitational pull of career influence that could not be understated.

Now, if only we could figure out a way to explain these statistical models using nothing but intergalactic puns. As they say, "May the F=ma be with you!"

See what else correlates with The number of respiratory therapists in Oregon

Correlation r = 0.9757652 (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 = 0.9521177 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 95.2% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of respiratory therapists in Oregon) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., How good SciShow Space YouTube video titles are) over the 9 years from 2014 through 2022.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 7.1E-6. 0.0000071252262001643910000000
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 0.98 in 0.00071% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 140,346 random variables You don't actually need 140 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 8 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 8 because we have two variables measured over a period of 9 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.

[ 0.89, 1 ] 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. Very low n: There are not many data points included in this analysis. Even if the p-value is high, we should be suspicious of using so few datapoints in a correlation.
