Correlate with?
Hi! everyone.
Could you tell me what "correlate with" means here? I have tried understanding it with the help of dictionary but I couldn't understand the meaning in the following context.
There were two happy peaks where greater ‘joy’ words were used in books - those published after the First World War and in the 1960s. In contrast, researchers found a sad peak corresponding to the Second World War.
‘We were initially surprised to see how well periods of positive and negative moods correlated with historical events,’ said Dr Acerbi.
Thanks!
