Fortunately, colleges with small class instruction can still compete against larger colleges by focusing on satisfaction factors that are overlooked due to large class sizes. In this research study, regression analysis was used to analyze the predictive relationship between each of ten satisfaction factors and net promoter score. Simple linear regression analysis revealed that satisfaction with academic advising, satisfaction with facility condition, satisfaction with alumni success, and satisfaction with teaching quality all had moderate correlation with net promoter score while other satisfaction factors had weaker correlations. Multiple linear regression analysis showed an adjusted R Square of 0.4759 which indicates that 47.59% of the variance in net promoter score can be explained by the three satisfaction factors of academic advising, faculty interactions, and alumni success. Research results suggest that college administrators should focus more on improving faculty members’ academic advising effectiveness, developing closer faculty connections with students, and ensuring the professional success of graduates versus overemphasizing on other less important factors. Future studies are needed to uncover critical satisfaction factors that have a stronger relationship with net promoter score.</p> Yu-Chin Wen Copyright (c) 2025 Buabundit Journal of Educatioal Administration 2025-11-14 2025-11-14 25 2 67 80 Guidelines for Promoting Schools to become Happiness Organization under Sisaket Primary Educational Service Area Office 1 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/BUAJEAD/article/view/284014 <p>The objectives of this research were 1)To study the condition of schools happiness organization.
