[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

A thorough review of the existing literature illuminates a dearth of studies examining the correlation between AsapSCIENCE YouTube video titles and the presence of coaches and scouts in Kansas. However, the authors find intriguing parallels in unrelated fields, hinting at the potential for unexpected connections.

In "Smith et al.," the authors explore the impact of engaging science communication on audience engagement, shedding light on the captivating nature of compelling titles in attracting viewer attention. Similarly, "Doe's" study delves into the psychology of online content consumption, emphasizing the role of catchy titles in driving click-through rates and user interest.

Furthermore, "Jones et al." investigate the labor market trends in the sports industry, with a focus on the distribution and demand for coaches and scouts in various regions. While seemingly disparate from the realm of YouTube content creation, this study paves the way for uncovering potential correlations between the two domains.

Turning to non-fiction literature related to the subject matter, "Talent Sourcing in the Digital Age" by A. Recruiter provides insights into the evolving methods of talent discovery in modern industries, underscoring the importance of digital platforms in reaching potential recruits. Similarly, "The Art of Science Communication" by K. Messenger offers perspectives on the art of crafting attention-grabbing scientific narratives, reinforcing the significance of effective storytelling in engaging audiences.

On a more imaginative note, works of fiction such as "The Coach's Code" by R. Mentor and "The Science Sleuths" by E. Discovery, while not directly tackling the connection between YouTube video titles and professional mentors, hint at the unconventional intersections of sports and science in unexpected contexts.

As the literature review expands into offbeat sources, the researchers unexpectedly stumbled upon a surprising trove of insightful data: anecdotal evidence gleaned from the cryptic labyrinth of CVS receipts. While initially dismissed as unrelated to the research topic, these obscure artifacts revealed a curious pattern of correlation between purchases of fizzy drinks and the occurrence of sports-related terms in YouTube video titles, adding a whimsical layer of complexity to the investigation.

With the preliminary literature review encompassing a blend of serious research, non-fiction insights, and unexpected whimsy, the stage is set for a deeper exploration of the perplexing pairings between AsapSCIENCE video titles and the presence of coaches and scouts in Kansas.

Correlation r = 0.8952406 (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 = 0.8014557 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 80.1% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of coaches and scouts in Kansas) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., How 'hip and with it' AsapSCIENCE YouTube video titles are) over the 11 years from 2012 through 2022.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.0002. 0.0001958098685395726100000000
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 0.9 in 0.02% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 5,107 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.

[ 0.64, 0.97 ] 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 25,237 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 636,906,169 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.
