People ≠ convictions

Do we really imagine each other like this? The organization Baltic Sea Unit based in Sweden surveyd the national attitudes on the neighbouring countries.
Denmark and Finland were associatied with democracy 63%, development 39% and growth 30%. < >
Baltic States and Poland were evaluated negatively: Four out of ten Swedish people named poverty and crime as the main qualities and 35 % – stressed the pollution.
Here is their impression, which I have brought from the meeting of journalists from 5 countries in Stockholm.

It is very funny, if I may say so : four countries depict a same polish characteristic through their analysis : the importance of religion in Poland. But it is not very easy to make the difference between a simple feature and a critic...
Instead, we can make a difference between national approach to giving the evaluation. Would be interesting to grasp why: people from "developed countries" named the concrete material features or critic..
In contrast to the "factual" critic, features, or whatever.. people from countries with slower progress gave more like their feelings, or sentiments..
Would the images be more realistic if these approaches were reversed?
