I was hoping Marn could show us where the data came from. Then, is that the same source as the data daca cited? Do they fit? Is one derived from the other? In other words, is daca's cited data just Marn's but adjusted for some socio-economic factors?
I can't read Danish. I think Marn and daca's discussion so far has been helpful, and I'm thinking they might have more on this. Can you read Danish and interpret the data they have presented?
It looks like there is a discrepancy, but I just don't know. 8X is huge, but looking down the vold column on daca's cited data it appears an index from zero to about 2X. I haven't averaged them, but that wouldn't even make sense, because we would need a weighted average to get to Marn's cited graph.
If I understand Marn's conjecture or question about that, I gather that the numbers in that column are an index of the violent crime rate for the given country normalized for some socio-economic factors and normalized to the Danish total population as 1.0. Not sure if that is correct, so I'm waiting to see if they will make that clear.
