An online survey assessing Australian residents' beliefs about non-verbal behaviour and deception, along with their opinions regarding cross-cultural deception detection.

A Qualtrics online survey with a replication of the ten questions used by The Global Deception Research Team (GDRT) (2006, p. 72). Additional free-text response questions were: Do you think it is harder to tell when someone from a different cultural background is lying? and: Why do you think it would, or might, be harder for people from different cultural backgrounds to tell if someone was lying?

Five hundred and thirty-three Australian residents completed the questionnaire fully, with five of the GDRT replicated questions having 534 responses. The youngest respondent was 16 and the oldest 86 (M=36.4, SD= 15.38).

Five hundred and three people answered the question: Why do you think it would, or might, be harder for people from different cultural backgrounds to tell if someone was lying?
