"The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett offers a whimsical tale of rejuvenation, where the healing power of nature intertwines with themes of education and personal growth. On the other hand, "The Language of Flowers" by Vanessa Diffenbaugh immerses readers in the poignant world of floral symbolism, presenting a nuanced exploration of human connections and emotional expression through blooms and blossoms.
Venturing into the realm of children's programming – yes, you read that correctly – we uncover a rich tapestry of whimsical insights. "The Magic School Bus: Blooms and Buds Edition" takes young viewers on a wild ride through the biology of flowers, seeding an early fascination with the natural world and its myriad wonders. Meanwhile, in "Bob the Builder: Flora's Floral Fiasco," the endearing characters navigate the challenges of creating a community garden, sowing the seeds of teamwork and environmental stewardship.
As we frolic through the academic garden, it becomes apparent that the correlation between Bachelor's degrees in Education and the floral designer industry in Arizona has eluded conventional scholarly pursuits. Embracing a bouquet of diverse influences – from scholarly works to whimsical tales – we are primed to uncover the petal-perfect correlation that awaits us. Get ready to "rose" to the occasion as we dig deeper into this uplifting, albeit slightly unexpected, academic pursuit.

To unearth the unexpected correlation between the issuance of Bachelor's degrees in Education and the flourishing of floral designers in Arizona, our research team employed a series of meticulously selected methods that would leave even the most stoic of researchers chuckling with sheer delight. Our data collection efforts primarily emanated from the National Center for Education Statistics and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, where we harvested a delightful bouquet of information spanning the years 2012 to 2021.
Firstly, we sauntered into the digital greenhouse of education statistics, plucking the precise number of Bachelor's degrees that had been sown in the fertile academic soil of Arizona. With our trusty trowels, we carefully culled this data, ensuring that no educational bloom was left uncounted. Of course, we approached this task with the finesse of a careful landscaper, for we understood the importance of capturing every academic blossom as it sprouted from the scholarly terrain.
Next, our gaze turned toward the Bureau of Labor Statistics, where we ventured into the vibrant garden of occupational data. Here, we meticulously counted the number of floral designers who had chosen to unfurl their artistic talents in the sun-soaked lands of Arizona. To ensure the utmost accuracy, we donned our metaphorical bee suits and diligently pollinated the statistical flowers, leaving no vibrant petal unaccounted for. After all, a single overlooked bud could lead to a wilting conclusion.
As we amassed the data from these distinctly cultivated fields, we meticulously pruned any extraneous variables that threatened to overshadow our precious findings. With the precision of expert horticulturists, we made sure to weed out any misleading information that might have crept into our statistical flower beds, ensuring that the correlation we uncovered bloomed brightly and truly stinkweed-free.
To analyze the harvested data, we employed a cornucopia of statistical tools, including but not limited to regression analysis and Pearson's correlation coefficient. These tools were like the shears and spades of the research world, allowing us to sculpt the thicket of numbers into a coherent and aesthetically pleasing topiary.
Once our statistical garden had been pruned and primed, we conducted a robust analysis befitting of the grandest academic hothouse. This involved scrutinizing the relationship between the issuance of Bachelor's degrees in Education and the sprouting workforce of floral designers in Arizona, curious to see if any entwining roots could be unearthed from this seemingly incongruous pairing.
In summary, our research methodology, much like a well-tended garden, carefully nurtured the data harvested from the fields of education and floral design, ensuring that each statistical bloom was delicately handled, tended to, and finally arranged into a gloriously interwoven bouquet of findings that has since left us utterly bedazzled.

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 = 0.9782097 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 97.8% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of floral designers in Arizona) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Bachelor's degrees awarded in Education) over the 10 years from 2012 through 2021.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 6.2E-8. 0.0000000621910453562400000000
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 0.99 in 6.2E-6% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 16,079,485 random variables You don't actually need 16 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 9 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 9 because we have two variables measured over a period of 10 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.
[ 0.95, 1 ] 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.
