Proposed Methodology. At this moment, we are conducting a survey with this setup using stills of 3D people. This survey is currently being distributed to three countries. While data collection has not yet been finished, one of the possible issues we might face is that the results are not generalizable enough because when you approach a group, the formation of the group is going to change as soon as you approach. Therefore, the use of 3D pictures might not be a sufficient methodology to investigate cross-cultural robot spatial behavior. Based on this insight, we propose a combination of a lab- and video study to increase ecological validity while investigating the following questions: 1) “From which angle should a robot approach a small group of people?” 2) “Do people from different cultures have significant different preferences when a robot approaches a small group of people?”
