Members Dr. Goldenglove Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 But do you know ("know" as in "post a link") of any studies showing a correlation between, for example, Coca-Cola consumption and car ownerhsip? Or maybe red wine consumption and car ownership? Beer and cars?Something of that sort. Or maybe bike/motorcycle ownership (not as good, though).Coca-Cola, too, is preffered. I'm totally serious.

Members H.R. Shove and Stuff Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 Do you actually need an article, or are you just looking for a correlation? It would be pretty easy to find the data for beer, wine, coke, etc consumption and car ownership. Then run the data through something such as minitab and find your significance. But if you actually need an article explaining it, I think you're out of luck haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dunnoaname Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 I found a research paper for you about "the effect of vehicle ownership for accessibility to food services" would that be any good? Also I can find a lot of scientific stuff about drinking and driving. But I'm guessing that's not what you're after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gae86 Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 No, but I can easily find a link between Dumble ownership and high LDL cholesterol and TG levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members claytonjohn18 Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 You're {censored}ed. If you didn't find a study on those two variables with Google, it's unlikely that one has ever been done. Why would someone study that? It's completely trivial.

Members dotlikeimpact Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 OK, reference librarian in training here. Couple questions. 1)scholarly or popular? 2) econ? what subfield? 3)what specific correlation are you looking for? just ownership of a car/consumption of soda/whatever? or are you looking at a phenomenon about transportation and ability to purchase goods?

Members Snufkino Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 Cars came after coca cola. I think you have all your answers right there. Fizzy drinks are just part of a giant conspiracy to sell cars. In fact make that the crux of your article and ask your tutors to disprove it.

Yes, just a relationship between car ownership/consumption of soda/whatever. Sholarly or popular doesn't matter at all. Field - I dunno, my friend asked me about this.

Members dotlikeimpact Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 Do you know if there already exists material on this? I'm having a hard time finding anything that specific. Lots of studies on BMI, car ownership and various junk foods, but these are more medical/public health articles than simple correlation studies.

Members Dr. Goldenglove Posted January 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 I dunno. Chances are, there isn't anything like that at all. But thanks anyway! And ZoomRMC, thanks for the pic. I needed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
