However, it had positive impacts on preference. Second, they hypothesis that application motive will affect department satisfaction found that preference motive as a subfactor of application motive showed negative impacts, yet it was rejected due to the absence of significance. However, it affected positively on preference influence. Third, the hypothesis that university examination will affect department satisfaction confirmed that school as a subfactor of university examination was rejected and private institute showed a positive influence.
