The Construction of Li Nationality Acculturation Questionnaire in China

Cultural changes under this new era context have had a tremendous impact on the existing social and psychological systems of the Li nationality, which is a test of the Li nationality acculturation too. However, there are few academic studies of Li nationality acculturation, and particularly, a lack of empirical research tools. The purpose of this study is to develop a questionnaire that is suitable for measuring Li nationality acculturation. Based on literature analysis, through the method of in-depth interviews, and an open-ended questionnaire, the authors have come up with the theoretical structure of Li nationality acculturation. The research selected 1326 Li people as participants, and through item analysis, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, compiled the Li Nationality Acculturation questionnaire (LNAS) in China. The results showed the questionnaire has a good reliability, validity, and stable characteristic, which means it is an ideal measurement tool.
