What about considering the differences between the countries at the top and the ones lower down the list instead of arguing about why the US and UK are where they are in isolation?

What are the cultural and or social differences that influence the results?

Maybe there's something to be said for more liberal societies which is what we see in many western european countries. The same ones that seem to have done well in this study.
