INTRODUCTION
It is no secret that academic research often delves into the realms of the unexpected and the unconventional, and our present inquiry is no exception. With the juxtaposition of air quality data and the valuation of an alluring undergarment, our investigation ventures into uncharted statistical territories, navigating the winds of correlation in search of intriguing connections. The aim of this paper is to disclose and examine an unexpected and, quite frankly, titillating relationship between the levels of air pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the exhilarating ups and downs in the value of the prestigious Victoria's Secret Annual Fantasy Bra.
We recognize that our research might be viewed as a departure from the usual rigors of academia, but as Mark Twain once quipped, "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." Hence, here we are, setting sails to traverse the uncharted currents of whimsical correlation.
To the casual observer, grand pollution levels and glamorous lingerie might seem as incongruous as electrons and a Shakespearean sonnet. However, as we embark upon this curious journey, we seek to unravel the knotty mystery that binds air quality to the perceived value of a bejeweled brassiere.
We do not take this endeavor lightly. Our inquiry has been buttressed by an array of rigorous statistical analyses, drawing strength from a nuanced understanding of both environmental data from the Environmental Protection Agency and the brassiere valuation from the annals of Wikipedia. Indeed, as we rove through the data points and probability distributions, we endeavor to present our findings with precision, verve, and perhaps a pinch of whimsy.
In our examination of the period from 1996 to 2019, we have uncovered a correlation coefficient of 0.8242889, accompanied by a level of significance, p < 0.01. This statistical revelation has left us both astounded and tickled, wondering whether the whims of consumer behavior are buffeted by the winds of environmental influences.
Thus, with an affable nod to the uncertainties that surround our improbable journey, we invite the reader to partake in our whimsical odyssey. Would it be an environmentalist's dream come true to learn that less pollution foretells more splendid lingerie? Or is there a more pragmatic explanation lurking behind this seeming serendipity? Join us, as we explore the interplay of the ethereal and the tangible, the unseen and the bedazzling, all in the pursuit of academic curiosity - and, of course, a few good puns along the way.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The exploration of the perplexing connection between air pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the valuation of the Victoria's Secret Annual Fantasy Bra is a venture that leads us into the uncharted territories of whimsical correlation analysis. While this association may seem more farcical than factual, it is imperative to acknowledge the terra incognita's allure in the realm of academic research.
Smith (2008) laid the foundation for such unexpected pursuits by propounding the notion that variables previously believed to be unrelated may, in fact, exhibit an astonishingly high degree of correlation. Doe's subsequent work (2012) further expanded upon this idea, urging researchers to seek correlations beyond the confines of traditional paradigms, for only in doing so might they unearth the unexpected and, dare I say, delightful.
However, as one delves into the more whimsical associations, the search for relevant literature veers off the beaten path into unconventional territory. Take, for instance, "The Economics of Ecstasy: Lingerie, Luxury, and the Lure of Lush Undergarments" by Jones (2015) - a compelling exploration into the intertwining forces of consumer behavior and the allure of luxury lingerie. This work, while ostensibly unrelated to air pollution, instigates thoughtful ponderings about the discernible behaviors in the consumer market.
Further complicating matters, "The Devil in the Smog: a Tale of Grand Rapids" by Emily Dickinson (1862) and "In the Misty City" by Edgar Allan Poe (1839), both of which, while fictional in nature, provide an intriguing backdrop to the atmospheric conditions of Grand Rapids and the potential impact on market sentiment. Though not extracted from empirical research, these narratives offer a whimsical lens through which to consider the intersection of environmental conditions and consumer preferences.
In a diversification of sources, our research team has delved into cartoons and children's shows for insights deemed relevant to the correlation at hand. As any astute scholar knows, "SpongeBob SquarePants" is a treasure trove of obscure wisdom. The episode centered on environmental awareness and consumer behavior provided unexpected parallels to our study. Moreover, "The Magic School Bus" and its whimsical take on ecological phenomena has offered surprisingly cogent insights, inspiring us to ponder the animated allegories of air pollution and consumer dynamics.
This amalgamation of diverse literature is emblematic of the interdisciplinary nature of our undertaking, as we attempt to situate our findings within the broader context of environmental influences on consumer behavior. Such unconventional forays into literature are not merely a whimsical indulgence but rather a testament to the multifaceted nature of academic inquiry. And, after all, what better way to uncover the unexpected than to venture into the most whimsical realms?

METHODOLOGY
Data Collection:
The data collection process was as meticulous as a seamstress crafting a finely embroidered lace trim. Our research team scoured the annals of the internet, diligently gathering air pollution data from the illustrious Environmental Protection Agency website. With steadfast dedication, they also rifled through the assorted Wikipedia pages in pursuit of the annual valuations of the Victoria's Secret Fantasy Bra. The process was akin to a treasure hunt, with the team navigating through a labyrinth of virtual corridors, all while maintaining the solemnity of academic inquiry (or at least attempting to).
Variable Selection:
In a quest reminiscent of a medieval alchemist seeking the Philosopher's Stone, the selection of variables was a nuanced endeavor. The independent variable, air pollution levels in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was thoughtfully chosen to encapsulate the atmospheric vicissitudes affecting the locale. Meanwhile, the dependent variable, the annual valuation of the Victoria's Secret Fantasy Bra, adorned our statistical crucible as the enigmatic outcome to be scrutinized. This juxtaposition of variables seemed almost as improbable and intriguing as the pairing of grapefruit and chocolate – an alluring blend of the unexpected.
Statistical Analysis:
The statistical analysis was conducted with the precision of a watchmaker fine-tuning the intricacies of a timepiece. Employing the venerable tool of correlation analysis, the research team endeavored to unravel the enigmatic relationship between these seemingly disparate variables. The Pearson correlation coefficient, akin to a wise soothsayer of statistics, was summoned to shed light on the hidden connections between air pollution and lingerie valuations. Our analysis unfolded over the time period of 1996 to 2019, endeavoring to capture the ebbs and flows of both environmental pollutants and fashion zeitgeist.
Data Interpretation:
As we set sail through the labyrinth of data points and probability distributions, our interpretations sought to balance erudition with a sprinkle of levity, much like a serious academic discourse peppered with the occasional jest. The correlation coefficient of 0.8242889 was a revelation that left us both scratching our heads and secretly reveling in the unexpected whimsy of our findings. The level of significance, p < 0.01, lent an air of statistical grandeur to our whimsical pursuit, validating the significance of our incongruous correlation.
Limitations:
While our findings have imbued us with a sense of wonder and bemusement, we acknowledge the limitations of our study. The restricted geographic scope, the idiosyncrasies of the lingerie market, and the vagaries of air quality dynamics present tantalizing avenues for further investigation. Nevertheless, as Carl Sagan poignantly stated, "Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known." In the spirit of this sentiment, we invite the academic community to accompany us on this audacious journey of discovery, and who knows, perhaps a few more surprising correlations and puns might await us on the horizon. After all, as researchers, we must dare to dream - even if those dreams involve the intersection of pollution and lingerie.

Aerial Adversities: Analysing the Association between Air Pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan and the Value of the Victoria's Secret Annual Fantasy Bra
[[ABSTRACT]]
This paper endeavors to explore the intriguing and peculiar correlation between the air pollution levels in the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the annual valuation of the Victoria's Secret Fantasy Bra. Through meticulous data analysis from comprehensive sources such as the Environmental Protection Agency and Wikipedia, our research team unearthed a compelling correlation coefficient of 0.8242889 with a level of significance, p < 0.01, for the period spanning 1996 to 2019. This investigation sheds light on the surprising relationship between environmental factors and the pricing dynamics of an iconic lingerie item, thereby adding a dash of levity to the often solemn domain of academic research. Our findings, while whimsical in nature, open doors for further exploration into the whims and whys of consumer behavior and market forces in the context of seemingly unrelated environmental influences.
[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The exploration of the perplexing connection between air pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the valuation of the Victoria's Secret Annual Fantasy Bra is a venture that leads us into the uncharted territories of whimsical correlation analysis. While this association may seem more farcical than factual, it is imperative to acknowledge the terra incognita's allure in the realm of academic research.
Smith (2008) laid the foundation for such unexpected pursuits by propounding the notion that variables previously believed to be unrelated may, in fact, exhibit an astonishingly high degree of correlation. Doe's subsequent work (2012) further expanded upon this idea, urging researchers to seek correlations beyond the confines of traditional paradigms, for only in doing so might they unearth the unexpected and, dare I say, delightful.
However, as one delves into the more whimsical associations, the search for relevant literature veers off the beaten path into unconventional territory. Take, for instance, "The Economics of Ecstasy: Lingerie, Luxury, and the Lure of Lush Undergarments" by Jones (2015) - a compelling exploration into the intertwining forces of consumer behavior and the allure of luxury lingerie. This work, while ostensibly unrelated to air pollution, instigates thoughtful ponderings about the discernible behaviors in the consumer market.
Further complicating matters, "The Devil in the Smog: a Tale of Grand Rapids" by Emily Dickinson (1862) and "In the Misty City" by Edgar Allan Poe (1839), both of which, while fictional in nature, provide an intriguing backdrop to the atmospheric conditions of Grand Rapids and the potential impact on market sentiment. Though not extracted from empirical research, these narratives offer a whimsical lens through which to consider the intersection of environmental conditions and consumer preferences.
In a diversification of sources, our research team has delved into cartoons and children's shows for insights deemed relevant to the correlation at hand. As any astute scholar knows, "SpongeBob SquarePants" is a treasure trove of obscure wisdom. The episode centered on environmental awareness and consumer behavior provided unexpected parallels to our study. Moreover, "The Magic School Bus" and its whimsical take on ecological phenomena has offered surprisingly cogent insights, inspiring us to ponder the animated allegories of air pollution and consumer dynamics.
This amalgamation of diverse literature is emblematic of the interdisciplinary nature of our undertaking, as we attempt to situate our findings within the broader context of environmental influences on consumer behavior. Such unconventional forays into literature are not merely a whimsical indulgence but rather a testament to the multifaceted nature of academic inquiry. And, after all, what better way to uncover the unexpected than to venture into the most whimsical realms?
[[RESULTS]]
The data analysis revealed a striking correlation coefficient of 0.8242889 between the levels of air pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the annual valuation of the Victoria's Secret Fantasy Bra. This coefficient, coupled with an r-squared value of 0.6794522 and a level of significance, p < 0.01, provided strong evidence of a significant relationship between these seemingly unrelated variables.
The scatterplot (Fig. 1) illustrates the robust association between the two variables, visually encapsulating the surprising symphony of pollution levels and lingerie valuations. The plot showcases a trend that would make any statistical model blush with enthusiasm, as it weaves through the points with a captivating elegance reminiscent of a runway show.
In the grand scheme of research endeavors, uncovering such an alluring correlation is akin to stumbling upon a rare, shimmering gem in the rough terrain of academic analysis. This unexpected finding invites contemplation on the whimsical interconnectedness of environmental quality and consumer preferences, adding a touch of whimsy to the usually buttoned-up world of statistical inquiry.
Our statistical results not only offer a glimpse into the peculiar dance between air pollution and fantasy bra valuations but also lay the groundwork for future explorations into the enigmatic forces shaping consumer behavior. As we navigate this unlikely terrain, we find ourselves pondering the pantomime of pollution and pulsating lingerie prices, encapsulating the essence of academia at its most captivating – and dare we say, flirtatious.

INTRODUCTION
It is no secret that academic research often delves into the realms of the unexpected and the unconventional, and our present inquiry is no exception. With the juxtaposition of air quality data and the valuation of an alluring undergarment, our investigation ventures into uncharted statistical territories, navigating the winds of correlation in search of intriguing connections. The aim of this paper is to disclose and examine an unexpected and, quite frankly, titillating relationship between the levels of air pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the exhilarating ups and downs in the value of the prestigious Victoria's Secret Annual Fantasy Bra.
We recognize that our research might be viewed as a departure from the usual rigors of academia, but as Mark Twain once quipped, "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." Hence, here we are, setting sails to traverse the uncharted currents of whimsical correlation.
To the casual observer, grand pollution levels and glamorous lingerie might seem as incongruous as electrons and a Shakespearean sonnet. However, as we embark upon this curious journey, we seek to unravel the knotty mystery that binds air quality to the perceived value of a bejeweled brassiere.
We do not take this endeavor lightly. Our inquiry has been buttressed by an array of rigorous statistical analyses, drawing strength from a nuanced understanding of both environmental data from the Environmental Protection Agency and the brassiere valuation from the annals of Wikipedia. Indeed, as we rove through the data points and probability distributions, we endeavor to present our findings with precision, verve, and perhaps a pinch of whimsy.
In our examination of the period from 1996 to 2019, we have uncovered a correlation coefficient of 0.8242889, accompanied by a level of significance, p < 0.01. This statistical revelation has left us both astounded and tickled, wondering whether the whims of consumer behavior are buffeted by the winds of environmental influences.
Thus, with an affable nod to the uncertainties that surround our improbable journey, we invite the reader to partake in our whimsical odyssey. Would it be an environmentalist's dream come true to learn that less pollution foretells more splendid lingerie? Or is there a more pragmatic explanation lurking behind this seeming serendipity? Join us, as we explore the interplay of the ethereal and the tangible, the unseen and the bedazzling, all in the pursuit of academic curiosity - and, of course, a few good puns along the way.

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 = 0.6794522 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 67.9% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Value of the Victoria's Secret Annual Fantasy Bra) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Air pollution in Grand Rapids, Michigan) over the 24 years from 1996 through 2019.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 7.4E-7. 0.0000007351092589620610000000
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 0.82 in 7.4E-5% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 1,360,342 random variables You don't actually need 1 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 23 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 23 because we have two variables measured over a period of 24 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.
[ 0.63, 0.92 ] 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.
