Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of education level on the determination of the amount of handover in the marriage tradition in East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara. The research method used is a qualitative approach with ethnography, which allows researchers to understand culture and social practices in depth. Informants in this study consisted of parents who had married off their children, individuals who had performed weddings and were about to get married, as well as 47 students from East Lombok and had taken formal education. Data collection techniques were carried out by interview and documentation, which provided relevant information regarding handover. The results showed that the level of education affects the expectation of the size of the handover, where higher education is interpreted as an indicator of self-esteem and social status.
