Abstract

This research investigates the satisfaction levels of boys’ hostel residents of International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI) with water facilities, considering both quality and quantity dimensions. A survey, administered to 205 residents through a carefully designed questionnaire, employs data analysis on Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). F-test and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) tests were applied. Results indicate an overall sense of contentment among most residents regarding water facilities. Notably, a significant proportion expressed satisfaction with the available amenities, while approximately one-fourth conveyed dissatisfaction, specifically regarding drinking water provisions. The null hypothesis: Hostel Number vs Water Consumption per day and Hostel Number vs Satisfaction Level, were considered and found acceptable. These findings offer nuanced insights into the complex dynamics of water facility satisfaction within hostel environments. The study not only contributes to the understanding of resident perspectives but also identifies key areas for targeted improvements. This research provides a foundational platform for further exploration and interventions aimed at enhancing the overall satisfaction and well-being of hostel residents.
