<h2>The Effect of Punishment Regimes on Crime Rates</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>
Criminologists are interested in the effect of punishment regimes on
crime rates. This has been studied using aggregate data on 47 states
of the USA for 1960 given in this data frame. The variables seem to
have been re-scaled to convenient numbers.
