The intersection of highschoolers and competitive binge eating may seem as outlandish as a physics professor at a chili cook-off, but our investigation aims to elucidate this enigmatic relationship with unwavering scientific rigor. By peeling back the layers of data and employing robust statistical methods, we hope to shed light on this peculiar correlation and perhaps inject a dash of levity into the typically austere world of academic research.
Even as we embark on this research endeavor, we cannot help but ponder the myriad ways in which highschoolers, hotdogs, and competitive eating intersect. Could it be the youthful exuberance fueling the contestants' gustatory endeavors, or perhaps the sheer magnitude of highschoolers collectively exerting a subliminal influence on the reigning champions' appetites?
In the grand tradition of esoteric correlations and unorthodox research pursuits, the Wiener-Take-All study promises to unravel an unexpected saga at the intersection of educational demographics and competitive consumption. Let us embark on this scholarly odyssey, armed with our data, our skepticism, and perhaps a touch of irreverent humor, to unravel the tantalizing enigma of hotdogs, highschoolers, and the savory statistics that bind them.

Expanding beyond the realms of traditional research, we encounter a myriad of seemingly unrelated non-fiction works that inadvertently shed light on the enigmatic correlation in question. "The Economics of Fast Food" by Ronald McDonald, not to be confused with the founder of a well-known fast-food chain, presents a comprehensive exploration of the economic forces driving the consumption of fast food, including hotdogs. Similarly, "The Highschoolers' Dilemma: From Cafeteria to Competition" seamlessly weaves together the narratives of highschoolers' dietary choices and the competitive eating landscape.
Delving into the realm of fiction, "The Hotdog Diaries" by Frank Furter and "Highschool Hijinks: A Culinary Chronicle" by Patty O'Furniture provide whimsical yet oddly resonant accounts of the intersections between highschoolers, hotdogs, and unexpected triumphs. While these works may not adhere to the rigorous standards of academic research, they offer captivating narratives that mirror the quixotic nature of our investigation.
In a serendipitous turn of events, social media posts have surfaced, providing anecdotal accounts of highschoolers expressing pride and elation at the accomplishments of Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Competition champions. The fervor and enthusiasm displayed in these posts hint at a potential undercurrent of highschoolers' influence on the competitive eating landscape, serving as an intriguing supplement to our quantitative findings.
The confluence of academic, non-fiction, and fictional literature, coupled with the anecdotal evidence from social media, serves to underscore the multifaceted nature of the inquiry at hand. As we proceed with our exploration, this eclectic blend of sources promises to inject a dash of mirth into our pursuit of unraveling the profound mysteries of highschoolers, hotdogs, and the unexpected correlations that bind them.

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 = 0.8535157 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 85.4% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Hotdogs consumed by Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Competition Champion) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Number of highschoolers in the US) over the 33 years from 1990 through 2022.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 1.8E-14. 0.0000000000000179755976393476
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 1.8E-12% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 55,630,973,726,907 random variables You don't actually need 55 trillion 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 32 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 32 because we have two variables measured over a period of 33 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.
[ 0.85, 0.96 ] 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. - Y-axis doesn't start at zero: I truncated the Y-axes of the graph above. I also used a line graph, which makes the visual connection stand out more than it deserves.
Nothing against line graphs. They are great at telling a story when you have linear data! But visually it is deceptive because the only data is at the points on the graph, not the lines on the graph. In between each point, the data could have been doing anything. Like going for a random walk by itself!
Mathematically what I showed is true, but it is intentionally misleading. Below is the same chart but with both Y-axes starting at zero.
