AI explanation

As the saying goes, no teacher, no schooner, so the lack of agricultural sciences teachers led to a decline in student interest in farming. This, in turn, created a shortage of sea-worthy farmers to supply SeaWorld with fresh produce, causing a ripple effect on the quality of the park. After all, without proper agricultural knowledge, they couldn't kelp but flounder. This ultimately led to a decrease in Visitors to SeaWorld Florida as people realized it just wasn't the plaice to be anymore. It seems like the situation has really barnacled into quite a problem!

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

To understand the enigmatic connection between agricultural sciences education and marine-themed amusement, we turn to a body of scholarly work that illuminates the unexpected interplay between these seemingly divergent domains. Smith et al. (2015) have delved into the realm of agricultural education, examining the impact of teacher-student ratios on student engagement and academic performance. While their focus may not have been on the specific circumstances of Florida, their findings shed light on the potential ripple effects of agricultural science instruction on student interest in related fields. Likewise, Doe and Jones (2018) have explored the dynamics of visitor behavior in marine parks, probing into the factors that influence attendance and engagement. Their insights serve as valuable pieces to the puzzle, offering a glimpse into the whims and wonders of marine-themed entertainment.

As we segue into a more lighthearted exploration of this dynamic, let us not discount the contributions of non-fiction literature that delve into the realms of agriculture and marine life. "The Blue Ocean Strategy" by W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne may at first glance seem unrelated to our endeavor, but the metaphorical resonance of this title in the context of SeaWorld's aquatic allure cannot be overlooked. Similarly, "The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan invites us to contemplate the complexities of food production and consumption, topics that intimately intertwine with agricultural sciences education. Now, turning to fiction, we encounter potential sources of inspiration in titles such as "The Secret Life of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd and "The Old Man and the Sea" by Ernest Hemingway. While not directly concerned with our focal points, these literary works provide rich tapestries of themes that echo the gentle embrace of our research interests.

In a delightful turn of events, the internet meme-sphere offers its own brand of insight into our topics. The "Salad Cat" meme, with its comical juxtaposition of feline companionship and leafy greens, nods to the whimsical potential of our agricultural-aquatic correlation. Furthermore, the proliferation of "Distracted Boyfriend" memes parallels the intriguing distractions that may draw visitors from the agricultural heartlands to the oceanic escapades of SeaWorld. In this delightful convergence of digital creativity and scholarly pursuit, we find ourselves buoyed by the lighthearted spirit of investigation.

As we wade into the sea of scholarly exploration, we invite our readers to embrace the buoyant blend of sobriety and whimsy that characterizes this interdisciplinary endeavor. The literature that surrounds us offers not only intellectual sustenance but also a wave of wit and wonder that propels us toward a deeper understanding of the intricate ties between teaching taters and turtles.

[[DISCUSSION]]

Our analysis has reeled in some truly fin-tastic findings, shedding light on the surprising connection between the quantity of agricultural sciences instructors in Florida and the tide of visitors to SeaWorld. The results of our study are a testament to the buoyancy of statistical evidence, as they buoyantly support the prior research that has hinted at the understated yet enchanting link between these seemingly disparate domains.

The correlation coefficient of 0.9461499 that we've netted is as striking as a marlin leaping out of the water, firmly affirming the relationship between the number of agricultural sciences teachers and the number of visitors to SeaWorld. This correlation value is stronger than the undertow of a riptide, providing robust support for the notion that the cultivation of crops and the care of marine creatures have woven an intriguing tapestry of influence in the Sunshine State.

Drawing on the prior work of Smith et al. (2015), we can see how our findings align with the broader framework of educational impact. Just as their study illuminated the resonance of teacher-student ratios with student engagement, our results underscore the pervasive impact of agricultural sciences instruction on the broader societal fascination with marine-themed amusement. It seems the teaching of taters has a ripple effect that stretches all the way to the ocean's edge, which is quite a sea change from the traditional understanding of agricultural education.

Taking a plunge into the annual ebb and flow of SeaWorld visitors, the work of Doe and Jones (2018) becomes even more relevant. Their exploration of visitor behavior in marine parks can now be seen in a new light, as our findings corroborate the idea that the lure of marine-themed parks may indeed be influenced by factors beyond the realm of aquatic entertainment. The fathomless depths of visitor behavior may be more intimately connected with agricultural education than we had ever dared to imagine. Who would have thought that the choices of visitors are as complex and interwoven as the coral reefs off the Florida coast?

In a delightful twist, the whimsical references in our literature review are given a hearty nod as we drink deeply from the well of statistical significance. The comical juxtaposition of "Salad Cat" and "Distracted Boyfriend" memes now mirror the unexpected pairing of agricultural sciences and marine entertainment. It appears that the playful spirit of digital creativity has signaled to us, like a playful dolphin leaping in the waves, that the enigmatic association between these variables is indeed not to be discounted.

In closing, our findings not only enrich the scholarly discourse on the interplay of education and recreation but also sprinkle a touch of humor and wonder in the hallowed halls of academia. The unexpected connection between teaching taters and attracting turtle enthusiasts invites us to ponder the whimsical and unexpected ways in which our world is interconnected. Let's ride this statistical wave with a sense of awe and amusement. Whether we're diving into agricultural sciences or exploring marine-themed attractions, the playful dance of statistics continues to surprise and delight, just like an unexpected encounter with a manatee in the depths of a bustling lagoon.

Correlation r = 0.9461499 (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 = 0.8951997 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 89.5% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Visitors to SeaWorld Florida) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The number of agricultural sciences teachers in Florida) over the 15 years from 2007 through 2021.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 9.8E-8. 0.0000000976532228816896000000
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 0.95 in 9.8E-6% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 10,240,317 random variables You don't actually need 10 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 14 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 14 because we have two variables measured over a period of 15 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.

[ 0.84, 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 25,153 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.
