Self-efficacy can be formed through strengthening values including on-going cultural values
in education process interaction, either at school, family or community. This research aims to
determine and analyze transformation process of on-going cultural values at school, family
and community in forming student self-efficacy. This research used a qualitative method with
a phenomenological approach. In phenomenology studies, data collection techniques are indepth interview, observation and documentation. These research participants were principals,
teachers, students’ parents and community groups in Purwakarta, Indonesia. The data were
obtained and analyzed through data collection, data reduction, data representation and
conclusion processes. Results of the research show that there is a very dominant role of
family, school and community in forming student self-efficacy through transformation
process of cultural values in education activities. Thus, strengthening cultural values,
particularly values of silihasah (mutual honing), silihasih (mutual love), and silihasuh (mutual
take care) as manifestation of Sundanese cultural values have superiority in forming student
self-efficacy in line with universal values namely honesty, justice, respect value,
responsibility and mercy.
