US Inflation Rate vs US Secondary School Enrollment
US Inflation Rate and US Secondary School Enrollment correlate at r = -0.54 over 35 years (1971–2022), p = 8.7e-4. With the time trend removed, r = -0.23. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 8.7e-4) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.23). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
