Abstract
This article aimed to study the perceptions of non-Zhuang residents in Guangxi towards Zhuang arts and develop a scale named "Perceptions of Non-Zhuang Residents in Guangxi Towards Zhuang Arts." The sample consisted of non-Zhuang residents in Guangxi, China. The instrument for collecting data was a Chinese online questionnaire collection tool called "Questionnaire Star." Analysis of data through descriptive statistics and content analysis. The research results were found as follows: identified five latent factors through exploratory factor analysis. Each latent factor contained five test items. However, the study also revealed limitations and challenges, including an incomplete theoretical background and deficiencies in the dimension setting. Hence, suggestions for future research were proposed, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive theoretical review, integration of theoretical and empirical studies, exploration of cross-cultural applicability, and refinement of measurement instrument design. Through these recommendations, it is hoped that future researchers can further refine and deepen the findings of this study, thereby advancing knowledge in this field.
