- People who only watch Phil are not significantly older than those who only watch Dan, but both groups are significantly older than those who watch both.
Age/In what year did you discover danisnotonfire/AmazingPhil?
- Respondents who started watching in the earlier years are older.

- People who find Phil more relatable are significantly older than people who find Dan more relatable.

- People who believe that Dan and Phil have or have had a romantic background are significantly older than those who believe in a platonic background.
Age/Do you consider yourself to be part of the phandom?
- These three groups differ significantly in age, in all combinations. People who consider themselves part of the phandom are younger than those who do not, or only partially do, and people who do not consider themselves as a part of the phandom are older than those who do, or only partially do.
Age/Is the Phandom the only fandom you belong to?

n - number of responses.
M - mean, the average result.
SD - standard deviation. The average distance to the average result - showing if results are typically clustered around an average result, or if there is a wide range of results.
Significant difference (p < x)/Not significant - There is a mathematical way to determine if two numbers (for example the age averages of two groups) are actually different from one another, or if they are within the range of what is considered random variance. This is called the p-value and we consider differences between results ‘significant’ when the p-value is smaller than 0.05. For large samples such as this, most results are significant - this does not mean that the difference is particularly large, just that there is a difference.
Pearson r - a measure of the linear correlation between two variables, with a value of between -1 and 1. A negative correlation means that as one becomes higher the other becomes lower, a positive correlation means that as one becomes higher so does the other.

(Only subscriptions to DINOF and AP were taken into consideration.)
Only watch Dan n = 91; M = 18.99; SD = 5.05

Analysis requests: Attraction and Views on ‘Phan’
This third set of analysis requests revolve both requests which include questions on who the viewer finds most attractive, then secondly requests which concern if a viewer ships Dan and Phil, or what they believe their relationship status to be in real life. As before conclusions can be found above the cut and full results and explanation of methodology below the cut, along with a brief definition of terms.
Which channel did you discover first?/Who are you most attracted to?
- There is a weak connection between which channel someone discovered first and who they are most attracted to; a weak connection of people answering the same for both questions.
In what year did you discover danisnotonfire/AmazingPhil?/Who are you most attracted to?
- There is basically no correlation between what year someone discovered Dan and Phil and who they are most attracted to.
Overall, do you prefer the content of danisnotonfire or AmazingPhil?/Who are you most attracted to?
- There is a medium to strong connection between people’s preference in content and who they are most attracted to; a medium to strong association of people answering the same for both questions.
Who do you relate to the most?/Who are you most attracted to?
- There is a medium connection between who people relate to most and who they are most attracted to; a medium association of people answering the same to each question.
Which channels of the following are you subscribed to?/Who are you most attracted to?
(Note: this request was submitted as ‘more attractive vs watch individual videos’. As there is no precise question to correlate with ‘watch individual videos’ ‘Which channels...’ has been taken to represent that.)
- There is basically no connection between which channels people watch and who they are most attracted to.
Which channel’s videos do you rewatch the most?/Who are you most attracted to?
- There is a medium connection between which channel people rewatch the most and who they are most attracted to; a medium association of people answering the same to each question.
Who are you most attracted to?/Who would you rather be friends with?
- There is a medium connection between who people are most attracted to and who they would rather be friends with; a medium association of people answering the same for each question.
In year did you discover danisnotonfire/AmazingPhil?/Do you ship phan?
- There is basically no connection between what year people discover Dan or Phil and if they ship phan.
Do you prefer individual or joint danisnotonfire and AmazingPhil content?/Do you ship phan?
- There is a weak connection between people’s preference for individual/joint content and if they ship phan.
Which channel did you discover first?/Do you ship phan?
- There is basically no correlation between which channel people discovered first and if they ship phan.
Which channel did you discover first?/Which of the following do you think is most likely to describe Dan and Phil’s relationship in real life?
- There is basically no correlation between which channel people discovered first and what they believe about Dan and Phil’s relationship status.
Do you consider yourself to be part of the phandom?/Do you ship phan?
- There is a medium connection between people considering themselves to be part of the phandom and if they ship phan; a medium association of people answering positively for each question.
Which of the following do you think is most likely to describe Dan and Phil’s relationship in real life?/Do you read phanfiction?
- There is a medium connection between beliefs about Dan and Phil’s real life relationship and whether or not they read fanfiction; a medium correlation indicating that more people who believe their relationship to have a romantic background also read phanfiction.
Note: p values are no longer being included as the large sample size leads to almost all results showing p < 0.001 - if a difference is not significant that will be stated.
Cramér's V - A value to express how closely related the responses to two survey questions are, ranked between 0 and 1. 1 would show total connection between two sets of responses - everyone who responded x for one question also answered y for a second one - while 0 would mean that there was no association between two sets of responses - people who responded x for one question are equally likely to respond any variable for a second question.
Phi coefficient - Phi values function much the same as a Cramér's V, only with a more specific application - for 2x2 cross tables. Phi values run from one to minus one, again with a value of zero indicating no association between results, a positive score indicating positive association - people who answered x were more likely to answer y - and a negative score a negative association - people who answered x were less likely to answer y.
