[[ABSTRACT]]
This study delves into the humorous yet intriguing relationship between the geeky minutiae of MinuteEarth YouTube video titles and the utilization of liquefied petroleum gas in the picturesque Cayman Islands. By leveraging data from AI analysis of YouTube video titles and the Energy Information Administration, our research team uncovered a surprising correlation coefficient of 0.9170006, with p < 0.01, spanning the years 2013 to 2021. Our findings suggest that there may be an unforeseen connection between the quirky titles of educational videos and the energy choices of this tropical paradise. This novel investigation not only expands our understanding of factors influencing energy consumption but also injects a whimsical twist into the otherwise sober realm of academic research.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
The world of academic research often involves delving into weighty matters, crunching numbers, and poring over data with unwavering seriousness. However, from time to time, a topic emerges that is so delightfully quirky and unexpected that it demands our attention. One such subject is the connection between the geeky minutiae of MinuteEarth YouTube video titles and the consumption of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the scenic and sun-kissed Cayman Islands.
The captivating allure of MinuteEarth's succinct yet nerdy video titles, coupled with the practicality of LPG in a tropical paradise, piqued our curiosity and led us down a delightfully offbeat research path. While at first glance these two entities seem about as compatible as a cat in a bubble bath, our initial investigation hinted at the possibility of a correlation. As such, we endeavored to bring a lighthearted and whimsical element to the typically staid field of energy consumption research.
In the following sections, we will analyze the relationship between the captivatingly nerdy YouTube video titles produced by MinuteEarth and the utilization of LPG in the idyllic archipelago of the Cayman Islands. We will explore how these seemingly unrelated realms intersect in a comical yet thought-provoking manner, shedding light on how unconventional sources of inspiration can influence real-world energy choices. So, take a deep breath, prepare to chuckle, and join us on a peculiar journey through the unexpectedly interconnected worlds of educational YouTube videos and energy consumption.

[[RESULTS]]
The results of our offbeat inquiry into the correlation between the geeky minutiae of MinuteEarth YouTube video titles and the consumption of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the Cayman Islands revealed a surprisingly robust relationship. We found a correlation coefficient of 0.9170006, an r-squared value of 0.8408901, and a p-value of less than 0.01, indicating a strong statistical significance.
The scatterplot in Figure 1, which we can only assume is as aesthetically pleasing as the Cayman Islands themselves, visually depicts the unmistakable positive correlation between these two seemingly unrelated entities. The graph's resemblance to a constellation map is almost poetic, as if the universe itself is amused by the unlikely connection we have uncovered.
Though we are hesitant to draw firm conclusions from this unorthodox juxtaposition of data, one cannot help but marvel at the parallelism between the cerebral cleverness of MinuteEarth's video titles and the practical choice of LPG for energy needs in this tropical haven. It is as if the geeks and the gas have found a harmonious equilibrium, defying conventional wisdom and leaving us with more questions than answers.
This unforeseen correlation raises the tantalizing possibility of a quirky influence that minute YouTube videos could have on the macro level energy choices of an entire region. Who would have thought that a catchy title about photosynthesis or the intricacies of plate tectonics could nudge an entire island towards a specific energy source? It seems that even in the world of energy consumption, the smallest details can have surprising and consequential effects.
As we reflect on our findings, we are reminded that in the data-driven realm of academic research, one should never underestimate the potential for absurdity and curiosity to lead to meaningful discoveries. This study not only adds a whimsical twist to the scholarly exploration of energy consumption but also attests to the serendipitous nature of scientific inquiry.

Correlation r = 0.9170006 (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 = 0.8408901 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 84.1% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Liquefied petroleum gas used in Cayman Islands) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., How geeky MinuteEarth YouTube video titles are) over the 9 years from 2013 through 2021.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.0005. 0.0004997166868130600000000000
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 0.92 in 0.05% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 2,001 random variables Which I absolutely did.
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.

[ 0.65, 0.98 ] 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.
  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.
