This research was conducted because there is a phenomenon of customary and educational
dilemmas in the Baduy Tribe. The Baduy tribe has a usual prohibition for requiring their children
to access formal education. This dilemma makes Non-Formal Education (PNF) an alternative
mechanism for the Baduy Tribe to access education. The PNF was carried out through the
existence of the Society Learning Center or Pusat Kegiatan Belajar Masyarakat (PKBM) Kencana
Ungu. This paper explains two critical things. Firstly, it describes the learning culture of the Outer
Baduy people in PNF at PKBM Kencana Ungu. Secondly, it tells the people of the Outer Baduy
Tribe choosing PNF at PKBM Kencana Ungu from the perspective of rational choices. This
research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods—the data is obtained through
observation, interviews, and documentation. The researchers interviewed 12 informants in-depth,
namely traditional leaders, the Head of PKBM Kencana Ungu, three (3) tutors from PKBM
Kencana Ungu, and seven (7) people from the Outer Baduy Tribe who accessed education at
PKBM Kencana Ungu. The research location was at the Kencana Ungu PKBM in Dukuh Village,
Leuwidamar Village, Leuwidamar District, Lebak Regency. The conclusion of this paper shows
that the learning culture of the Outer Baduy Tribe has changed from an oral culture that was
passed down from generation to generation to a written culture. This change in learning culture
causes changes in the behavior of the Outer Baduy Tribe towards customary arrangements. This
change in learning culture causes changes in the conduct of the Outer Baduy Tribe towards
everyday arrangements. In addition, the primary considerations for the Outer Baduy people
accessing education at PKBM Kencana Ungu are rational choices based on a calistung learning
culture, rational choices based on social status, and rational choices based on mindset. The
rational choice theory used in this paper refers to James Coleman. These various preferences
have various implications for several aspects of the life of the Outer Baduy people, namely
educational implications, socio-cultural implications, economic implications, and psychological
implications.
