Resident housing satisfaction in multifamily housing environments in Korea
Housing environments are important in understanding man's relationship to the built environment, since they represent the most fundamental place for living. Residents' housing satisfaction, as a theoretical construct, has been an important criterion in evaluating the performance of not only the physical, but also social and behavioral aspects of housing environments. This study seeks to (1) expand upon previous causal models of residents' housing satisfaction by examining more explicitly the objective characteristics of the physical environment, in addition to examining the social and behavioral issued related to the design and planning of the housing environment, (2) test a proposed causal model in various multi-family housing environments in Korea, (3) and consider implications of the results of the tested model for design, planning, and policy.
