Abstract

The lion dance spread to Malaysia with the Chinese migration. In the course of its development, generations of Malaysian lion dancers have continuously contributed to the inheritance and development of the lion dance, which attracted the attention of the government and the participation of the general public. In recent years, with the social progress and cultural changes, the young lion dancers in Malaysia have become the mainstream in the new era. The function of group behavior value has declined, manifested in the inability to meet the needs of the group, the neglect of the binding force of behavior norms, the lack of cohesion and sense of belonging, and the dilemma faced by the cultural inheritance of lion dance. Faced with these problems of group behavior of lion dancers, it is vital to strengthen the optimization of the value function of group behavior in order to better promote the development of lion dancers and the inheritance of lion dance culture. There are some measures to optimize the value function of group behavior to form more perfect group behavior characteristics of lion athletes, to promote the development of Malaysian lion dance, and to promote the international dissemination of lion dance, such as establishing idol worship among lion dancers to enrich their spiritual life; deepening their understanding of the rules and regulations to enhance the binding force of the code of conduct; actively carrying out lion dancing activities to promote regional cooperation and exchanges; using modern media to inherit the culture of dragon and lion dance.
