Nov 30, 2023 at 19:03 comment added jeffronicus @Laurel I've added the relevant columns with a table using Markdown coding. I see some supplementary links have already gone dead in the two years since the answer was first posted.

added table
Nov 30, 2023 at 16:22 comment added Laurel That table is very hard to read on certain devices. Can you extract the information (for Norway at least) and include it as text in the answer?

Oct 8, 2021 at 3:34 comment added Sherwin Lott Great, this is clearly where the numbers came from. I have a couple clarifying questions about this chart with respect to column 6. (1) Is this all public and private spending, or is it only government spending on public and private institutions? (2) Is this per enrolled student as @Fizz suggests--it says based on "head counts?" (Dividing the numbers in the PF3.1.B chart I had by enrollment actually gets close to the NYT numbers, it just is not consistent with the US numbers.) (3) This is PPP? I know it says it, but I'm just surprised because then the nominal numbers are even higher.
Oct 8, 2021 at 1:02 comment added days of love iff good genes Finally, the USA data in B2.3 is simply missing (for ages 0-2). The NYT probably fumbled here by reporting data on something else as that $500 for the USA in their comparative graph. For USA ages 3-5 it was $9832 in that B2.3, which is a lot higher than $500.
Oct 8, 2021 at 0:51 comment added days of love iff good genes It's also worth noting from the previous table B2.2 that only about half the children in Norway are enrolled in such programs. The figure in B2.3 is almost certainly per enrolled child.
Oct 8, 2021 at 0:48 comment added days of love iff good genes It's worth noting from the methodology discussion that diving up of the total (ages 0-5) between ages 0-2 and 3-5 is an estimation based on assuming how much time educators in such joint institutions spend on each age group and relative levels of enrollment.

added additional reference from the report to how the numbers are generated.
