dc.description.abstract |
The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of hostel students’
satisfaction on their academic performance in Sri Lankan Universities. The selected sample
for the study contained 367 final year hostel students from two universities in Eastern
Province, Sri Lanka using random sampling method. A questionnaire survey was
administered. The level of measuring variables was interval and the relevant statistical
techniques for these measures were univariate analysis, and bivariate analysis. One
hypothesis was tested to assess the empirical relationships among variables. The overall
average hostel student’s satisfaction was 3.29 with significantly greater P values and the
average GPA of the hostel students was 3.054 with significantly greater than the normal
pass. Looking at the overall association among the variables it was observed that there is a
significant positive correlation between the student’s GPA and overall satisfaction factors (r.=
0.632). Finally, these findings may lead to making some recommendations to improve the
present level of satisfaction of students in hostels which might lead to an increase in their
academic performance. |
