- Abstract
Cases of early marriage in Indonesia have increased 3-fold since 2019 until recently. Early marriage occurs at the age of under 19 years or adolescence. Early marriage has an impact on youth related to the lack of developmental tasks. This allows for factors that cause individuals to decide to marry early. The purpose of this study is to classify and summarize the factors associated with decision making to marry at an early age in Indonesia. The method used in this study is the study of literature using three data bases (Neliti, Garuda, and Rama) with keyterms “perkawinan dini”, “pernikahan dini”, “pernikahan remaja”, “perkawinan remaja”, “nikah muda”, “kawin muda”, “perkawinan dibawah umur”, and “pernikahan dibawah umur”. There are 22 articles consisting of 21 articles and 1 thesis. The results of this study show that the factors that influence early marriage decisions in Indonesia are family ties, gender inequality, poverty and economic survival strategies, control over sexuality and protecting family honor, tradition and culture, and insecurity. The results showed that there are no specific factors happening in Indonesia, the only difference is the tradition and culture factor. Finally, the most common factors found in the journal articles studied are control over sexuality and protecting family honor.
