| Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to classify the environment-friendly factors within their current apartment house residences for the residents of
environment-friendly apartment houses to identify the impact of the environment-friendly factors on their residential satisfaction and
willingness to continue residing in these residences. For this study, 465 residents of the new town areas in Jingwan-dong (Eunpyeong-gu,)
Gileum-dong (Seongbuk-gu,) and the Hawangshipri-dong (Seongdong-gu), all in Seoul, were surveyed and the data collected from the survey
were analyzed. The findings of this study were as follows; firstly, the factors of the environment-friendly apartment houses, which were,
respectively, land use, transportation, energy resources, environmental burden, indoor environment, and ecological environment, were all found
to be with a positive impact on residential satisfaction. Secondly, the factors of the environment-friendly apartment houses, which were,
respectively, land use, transportation, ecological environment, and indoor environment, had a positive impact on the willingness to continue
residence. Thirdly, residential satisfaction with environment-friendly apartment houses turned out to have a positive impact on the willingness
to continue residence. Fourth, in the relationship between the factors of environment-friendly apartment houses, which were, respectively, land
use, transportation, energy resources, environmental burden, ecological environment, indoor environment, and the willingness to continue
residence, residential satisfaction was found to have a significant mediating effect for all of them. Therefore, since being an
environment-friendly apartment house can be a decisive factor for the willingness to continue residence in an apartment house, the study
indicates that efforts must be made to realize the development of sustainable development of apartment houses while encouraging such a
development to be resource-efficient and nature-friendly, to enhance the quality of life of the residents. |
