Upon first review it was quite interesting to compare how countries perceive themselves, but when trying to compare countries to each other I realized that the x-axis and y-axis are different for each country.

For example the first quote says "A fascinating new study reveals that Americans are more likely to call their children 'intelligent'", but in fact a higher percentage of parents in Australia say their children are more intelligent.

Parents in Spain think their kids are really really easy.




Australia gets a mention but after that I think it just gets lumped in with Europe. You don't think they got confused with Austria do you?


Glad someone else saw this. The conclusions of the article don't seem to follow from the data.
