Abstract
Student dormitory as a social and cultural space plays an important role in students' satisfaction from university and higher education and their educational performance, which is why understanding the living conditions of dormitories and their management is necessary to improve it. The present article, while conceptualizing the quality of dormitory life, uses survey method and questionnaire technique to study the quality of dormitory life among 2500 students in 10 university districts and 22 universities in the country. The findings showed that in the welfare dimension, students were dissatisfied with the facilities of the room, the building and the dormitory, the cultural facilities and the physical welfare facilities. In the cultural dimension, on the one hand, students were dissatisfied with the cultural activities and programs in the dormitory, and on the other hand, they would not enjoy their leisure time. In the social dimension, the identity of social pathologies among girls was mainly related to sexuality and friendship relationships (friendship, sexual and party). The most commonly used tobacco products among students were first hookahs, followed by cigarettes, alcoholic beverages, drugs and pip. Many of them were dissatisfied with the time of traffic in the dormitory. In general, students' satisfaction with the subjective quality of dormitory life, both intuitively and in logical form, was low. The results indicate that there is a low level of quality of objective life in dormitories, which in turn affects their subjective quality.
