Abstract The main purpose of this study is to enhance the understanding of satisfaction and behavior in a residence hall. Furthermore, the study examines how consistent or different results of the present study are, compared to the previous one, done with another residence hall, in the same campus. The analysis was carried out by means of observation and questionnaire research designed for a residence hall at Hongik University, Chochiwon. A 5-story residence hall, recently constructed with the modified layout based on the result of the previous study, was chosen for the study. Among others, the results of the both studies consistently showed that lack of space in the residence unit was the most dissatisfied factor, in spite of the fact that a great majority of the students studied and spent leisure time in the unit. In addition, the present study indicated that the overall unit dimension must be increased due to the extened size of the table to carry personal computers that most students have in their residence units.
