Personalized Arts Learning Through Musical Preferences and Personality Traits: A Conceptual Study Using the 16PF Model
This conceptual study examines how musical preferences reflect personality traits, using Raymond Cattell’s 16 Personality Factors (16PF) as a theoretical lens to inform personalized strategies in arts education. Through an integrative qualitative literature review, it synthesizes insights from music psychology, personality theory, and affective pedagogy to develop a framework for emotionally resonant and cognitively responsive learning environments. Findings indicate that preferences for genres such as classical, jazz, pop, or hip-hop are closely linked to psychological traits like sensitivity, liveliness, openness to change, rule-consciousness, and social boldness. These associations enable educators to identify students’ affective orientations and adapt arts instruction to their individual learning styles and emotional needs. The proposed framework addresses key educational challenges such as emotional disengagement and cognitive fatigue by positioning music as both a reflective medium and a pedagogical tool for fostering self-awareness and personal expression. It further advocates the use of informal assessments and personality profiling to support differentiated instruction and culturally relevant curriculum design. The study contributes a theoretically grounded pedagogical model that integrates personality-informed strategies with student-centered approaches, enhancing learner engagement, authenticity, and inclusion. Ultimately, this research offers a conceptual foundation for arts education that is more personalized, emotionally intelligent, and psychologically responsive.
art education, gender equality, gender stereotypes, inclusivity
Fine arts education has an important role in supporting gender equality through the development of creativity, critical thinking, and empathy. However, challenges such as gender stereotypes, discrimination, and underrepresentation of women in the arts remain significant obstacles. This article aims to explore the role of art education in creating gender equality by identifying existing problems and opportunities. A conceptual approach is used by analysing literature related to gender-responsive art education and the UNESCO 2024 framework. The results of the analysis show that fine arts education can be a strategic tool to overcome gender stereotypes, increase women's participation, and create inclusive learning environments. In addition, gender-based programmes, such as inclusive curricula and cross-gender collaboration, can open wider access for women to work in the arts. Through equitable and inclusive art education, it is hoped to create a more equal society that respects gender diversity. The findings of this article emphasise the importance of using the UNESCO 2024 framework to create a more equitable and sustainable arts education system.

The Learning Process of The Rapa'i Geleng Dance At Seulawet Arts Groups in UIN AR-RANIRY Banda Aceh
Although dances are generally performed by women, the traditional Acehnese dance "rapa'igeleng" is instead performed by a group of men, emphasizing cooperation, togetherness, and solidarity. Uniquely, there is a traditional oral product in the form of poetry that is also presented as an accompaniment to the dance. By analyzing dance learning behavior, this research aims to explain the learning processes undertaken by the male dance group at the traditional dance studio Seulawet at UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh. To gain a deep understanding, a qualitative method with participatory observation was used to examine the competence of the trainers, objectives, teaching materials, teaching methods, and assessments. Interviews and training program documents were also used for source and data triangulation. The study concluded that the process of learning the rapa'igeleng dance at the Seulaweut Art groups at UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh revealed that the dance trainers did not have a bachelor of art background, but were seniors who already had dance experience and had achieved success both domestically and internationally. Dancers and musicians from Seulaweut Art Groups are among the students of UIN Ar-Raniry. Teaching materials include the scope of the rapa'i geleng dance, the movements of the rapa'i geleng dance, the poetry of the rapa'i geleng dance, and how to play the rapa'i musical instrument, Teaching methods are the lecture method, question and answer method, and demonstration method.
