RE: Bystander Effect: What is it & What to do about it?
Yes, the effect depends on a number of cultural factors too, with the size of the settlement being one of the most prominent. Also, the level of individualism/collectivism in the country/nation is another important factor.
If it interests you, United States, Australia, United Kingdom, Netherlands, and New Zealand are highly individualistic societies, while the countries of the Caribbean are generally the most collectivist ones. I might actually publish a whole article on this. : )
It would be interesting, practically most of the western countries are at the same time the most individualistic.
