| Abstract |
This study was conducted targeting foreign students to examine their consciousness of residental environment and to propose plans of communal dormitories for foreign students that will be built in the future. For these purposes, research methods were set as following. First, a survey was conducted targeting Korean and foreign students after extracting assessment elements of residental environment of dormitories by reviewing the previous studies and literatures. Second, differences between two groups(Korean and foreign students) were drawn by comparing and analyzing their consciousness of residental environment through IPA(Importance-Performance Analysis). Third, improvement of residental environment of dormitories and plans of communal dormitories for foreign students that will be built afterwards were proposed based on 'planning elements to be preferentially corrected' according to IPA. Research results are as following. First, it was found that there were conscious differences of residental environment between Korean and foreign students in some categories. Also, for Korean students, the average grades of residental environment were respectively 4.23(Importance) and 3.48(Performance), and for foreign students, they were respectively 4.10 and 3.89. It implies that residental environment of dormitories should be improved. Second, as a result of IPA, detailed assessment elements of the external environment of dormitories and facility environment categories were placed in the 1st, 2nd and 4th quadrant, and majority of detailed assessment elements of functional internal environment category were placed in the 1st and 4th quadrant. Also, detailed assessment elements of social and psychological environment category were all placed in the 4th quadrant, excepting for D-5 elements. |
