Abstract: Uneven economic development acts as a trigger for population movements, commonly known as migration. This study aims to analyze various factors influencing the migration preferences of the Balinese population for educational reasons within a patrilineal cultural context. This study examined the preferences of school-aged residents of Bali (15–24 years old) for outward migration for educational purposes. This study, using parametric statistical analysis with the binary logistic regression model, found that factors such as geographic origin, gender, education level, age, father's and mother's education, availability of educational and health facilities, and family income can explain the variation in preferences for outward migration for educational purposes. The explained variance is 78.6 percent, while other variables not included in the research model explain the remaining 21.4 percent of the variation. The variable of patrilineal culture exhibits a significant negative correlation with an individual's inclination to migrate abroad for educational purposes, suggesting that the existence of a patrilineal culture reduces this preference.
