Residential Satisfaction in Student Housing : An Empirical study in Stockholm, Sweden / Bostadsnöjdhet i Studentbostäder : En empirisk studie i Stockholm, Sverige

This study attempted to assess the residential satisfaction in student housing in Stockholm, Sweden. It examined how satisfied the current residents were and the indictors which predicted residential satisfaction in this context. Moreover, it investigated whether residential satisfaction varied between different socio-demographic groups. A list of 24 indictors were identified through reviewing literature and the semi-structured interview. Data were obtained from a questionnaire survey, of which the participants were selected through simple random sampling. A total of 183 valid responses were analyzed through descriptive analysis, stepwise regression, t-test and analysis of variance. The results showed that the current occupants were generally satisfied with the student housing. Seven indicators appeared to be predictors of satisfaction, among which the strongest ones were kitchen facilities, cleanliness and public transport stations. In terms of socio-demographic characteristics, those with a shorter residential duration were found to be more satisfied, and studio residents were more satisfied compared with corridor-room residents. / Denna studie försökte bedöma tillfredsställelsen med boende i studentbostäder i Stockholm, Sverige. Den undersökte hur nöjda de nuvarande invånarna var och vilka indikatorer som förutspådde boendenöjdhet i detta sammanhang. Dessutom undersökte man om tillfredsställelsen i boendet varierade mellan olika sociodemografiska grupper. En lista med 24 indikatorer identifierades genom granskning av litteratur och den semistrukturerade intervjun. Data hämtades från en enkätundersökning, varav deltagarna valdes ut genom ett enkelt slumpmässigt urval. Totalt 183 giltiga svar analyserades genom deskriptiv analys, stegvis regression, t-test och variansanalys. Resultaten visade att de nuvarande boende generellt sett var nöjda med studentbostäderna. Sju indikatorer verkade vara prediktorer för tillfredsställelse, bland vilka de starkaste var köksfaciliteter, renlighet och kollektivtrafikstationer. När det gäller sociodemografiska egenskaper visade sig de med kortare boendetid vara mer nöjda, och studioboende var mer nöjda jämfört med invånare i korridorrum.
