It turns out, as Matt Kemp's home run numbers decreased, so did the overall excitement and energy in the universe. This led to a statewide dip in enthusiasm, prompting some preschool special education teachers to pursue more stimulating career paths. You could say, as Kemp's home runs dwindled, so did the teaching force - it was a real case of 'Kempact' on the education sector in Missouri!Model: dalle-3
Prompt: Prompt: Generate an image of a cyberpunk baseball diamond, with Matt Kemp at bat. As he hits fewer home runs, the crowd in Missouri becomes less animated, with fewer fans jumping up and cheering. In a nearby preschool, children seem less engaged, with fewer smiles as they play. The teachers, once bustling around to accommodate the kids, now have a quieter environment with less need for individual attention. The environment should be a blend of traditional baseball elements and futuristic cyberpunk aesthetics, such as neon lights, advanced technology, and a dystopian city backdrop. The depiction should include only scenes, people, and objects, it should not include text or speech bubbles.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The notion that there exists a relationship between the number of home runs hit by professional baseball player Matt Kemp and the quantity of preschool special education teachers in Missouri has perplexed researchers for years. Initial studies, such as Smith's groundbreaking work in "The Journal of Statistical Curiosities," have attempted to debunk this connection as nothing more than a statistical anomaly. However, as we dived headfirst into this peculiar correlation, we quickly realized that there's more to this matchup than meets the eye - much like trying to make a baseball team comprised of ducks... It would be a quack team!
Doe, in "Analysis of Unlikely Statistical Associations," initially dismissed the notion of any meaningful relationship between these variables. However, our analysis has revealed a correlation coefficient so high that it would make even the most seasoned statistician do a double-take. It's as surprising as a knuckleball in the middle of a heated brawl - a true game-changer.
As we wade through the sea of literature, it becomes evident that the intersection of sports and education is a field ripe for unexpected discoveries - much like finding a baseball diamond in the rough. Jones, in "Statistical Oddities: Beyond the Mean," made a passing remark about the possibility of unusual correlations in seemingly unrelated domains, but the magnitude of our findings takes it a step further. It's as if we've hit a statistical grand slam, and the crowd goes wild!
Turning our attention to books that have touched on the tangential topics related to our study, "Moneyball" by Michael Lewis sheds light on the intricacies of baseball statistics and player performance. Meanwhile, in "Freakonomics" by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, the authors delve into the unexpected connections within data, much like the surprising link between Matt Kemp's home runs and preschool special education teachers in Missouri. Speaking of unexpected connections, did you hear about the baseball team that hired an economist to optimize their lineup? They ended up with the most valuable players in the league – literally!
And now let's transition to some fictional works that seem surprisingly relevant to our research. In "The Art of Fielding" by Chad Harbach, the themes of baseball and the unpredictable nature of life resonate with our unexpected findings. Additionally, the whimsical world of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" by Roald Dahl, much like our study, is filled with surprises and unforeseen connections – just like the link between Matt Kemp's home runs and preschool special education teachers. It's almost as surprising as finding a golden ticket in a candy bar wrapper!
Our investigation also led us to immerse ourselves in TV shows that touch upon the intersecting worlds of sports and education. "Friday Night Lights" offers a captivating portrayal of the impact of sports on a community, much like the ripple effect of Matt Kemp's home runs on the employment landscape of preschool special education teachers in Missouri. Meanwhile, "Community" humorously explores the dynamics of a diverse group coming together, much like the unexpected convergence of baseball and education in our study. It's like finding out that a baseball team’s secret weapon is a preschool teacher with an arm of steel!
As we navigate through the diverse realms of literature, both academic and fictional, it becomes evident that our findings add an element of surprise to the often predictable world of statistical analysis. Perhaps, in the end, the true home run is the unexpected correlations we find along the way - and that's no joke!

[[METHODOLOGY]]
To tackle the ballyhoo of deciphering the curious correlation between Matt Kemp's home runs and preschool special education teachers in Missouri, we unleashed a gamut of statistical and data-mining techniques. Our approach was more multi-faceted than a pitcher's arsenal of curveballs, sliders, and changeups.
First, we embarked on a merry-go-round journey through the digital archives of Baseball Reference, where we meticulously tracked the number of home runs hit by Matt Kemp from 2012 to 2020. It was like searching for a needle in a haystack, except the needle was a home run and the haystack was a bazillion baseball stats.
Next, like intrepid explorers in search of treasure, we navigated the labyrinthine corridors of the Bureau of Labor Statistics to unearth the count of preschool special education teachers in the great state of Missouri over the same time period. It was akin to prospecting for gold in a river of employment data - a formidable task, rife with potential pitfalls and nuggets of invaluable information.
After wrangling the requisite data like a seasoned cowboy lassoing a wayward calf, we applied a diverse range of statistical methods, including regression analysis, to scrutinize the relationship between these seemingly incongruous variables. Our analyses were more rigorous than a manager's argument with an umpire - painstakingly dissecting the intricacies of the relationship like a baseball fan scrutinizing a controversial play.
To validate our findings and ensure the robustness of our results, we employed cross-validation techniques and sensitivity analyses, akin to scrutinizing a home run replay from multiple camera angles - leaving no room for doubt or second-guessing.
Moreover, to infuse a layer of lightheartedness into the otherwise serious realm of statistical analysis, we incorporated a dash of humor at regular intervals. After all, what's a statistical study without a few well-timed dad jokes? It was like playing a game of statistical "knock-knock" - where the punchline was a revelatory correlation instead of a punny retort.
In addition to the statistical analyses, we conducted a series of interviews with baseball enthusiasts, educators, and data analysts to gain qualitative insights into the potential real-world implications of our findings. These exchanges were as enlightening as a post-game discussion with players and coaches, shedding light on the broader significance of our discoveries and further emphasizing the unexpected convergence of disparate realms.
In conclusion, our methodology was as comprehensive as a 9-inning game, as meticulous as an umpire's strike call, and as illuminating as a well-lit ballpark at night. Our approach not only unraveled the enigmatic connection between Matt Kemp's home runs and preschool special education teachers in Missouri but also exemplified the whimsical and multifaceted nature of statistical exploration.

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 = 0.8794981 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 87.9% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of preschool special education teachers in Missouri) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Number of home runs hit by Matt Kemp) over the 9 years from 2012 through 2020.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 0.00019. 0.0001857244460412982600000000
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 0.94 in 0.019% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 5,384 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.
[ 0.73, 0.99 ] 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.
2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | |
Number of home runs hit by Matt Kemp (Home runs) | 23 | 6 | 25 | 23 | 35 | 19 | 21 | 1 | 6 |
The number of preschool special education teachers in Missouri (Laborers) | 350 | 180 | 350 | 250 | 460 | 310 | 350 | 150 | 120 |
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. - 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.
