Abstract

This study builds a quick and efficient intention model with students joining service learning loyalty. The purpose of this study the factors involved in influencing attitudes, intentions and other services for service-learning loyalty detected in University students. This study is using Autonomy questionnaire way, and the main group is the studying Service Learning Course students in central Taiwan, investigated a total of 1,500 copies were returned 1,230 effective samples, the rate was 82.3%. Regarding “Besides me, I will encourage other people to participate in volunteer service”, there are 400 copies in answered “Greatest Agree”, so we found out the key decision factors of learning service loyalty by the grey theoretical analysis of Decision Support System (DSS) from overall participation attitudes . Authors found there is a significant difference between overall participation attitudes and learning service correlation of approval in different gender background variables. This study builds the Students service loyalty decision model for counting the effective service loyalty by key decision variable. The results can provide other schools and following study reference, and suggests schools and government should focus learning service education function and counseling expertise ability, to offer better service to students.
