Opis

The current study is unique in the way in which it attempts to mainly focus on student housing preferences, satisfaction and scene of attachment to place. By the development and validation of a research instrument this study also paves the way for further studies on student housing. Research in this area is essential in keeping university and practitioners informed about the level of their student accommodation preferences. Further insight into students trade-offs between accommodation attributes could be helpful in the process of managing and designing student accommodations as well as the development of optimal learning environments for students. The result of this study may also be useful for university management by shedding light on occupants preferences in relation to their personal characteristics and the potential uses of their rooms. Understanding the factors of these preferences can assist universities in undertaking changes to increase satisfaction among them.
