There is another apparent trend. This did not necessarily show in the data but became apparent in the compilation of it. If a boy had never been caned before, he tended to receive leniency on the first offence, and once he was already known to have be caned previously, there was a bias to increase the number of strokes. Good examples are 11 and 12-year-olds who got 1 the first time but 2, sometimes more, on subsequent visits.
