As the role and functions of the today’s museum become more and more important, the
expeαation and demand for the museum have also being increased. A docent institution, as a
branch of volunteer service in culture, performs more effectively the role of today’s museum
fortified the educational function. Thus, this researcher analyzed in details how much effect the
degree of the audience's satisfaction through a survey of questionnaire. As the result, in case of
audiences’ requirement, the degree of satisfaction of an audience who took a volunteer service
shows higher rate in all aspects, and the result of independent samples t-test also shows that a
volunteer service can affect the degree of satisfaction of an audience. Further, the result of
analysing correlation between the degree of satisfaction of an audience and that of museum in all
aspects such as the requirement sufficiency, the recommendation choice, and the revisit intention
shown a limited but obvious correlationship
Based on this result, the researcher proposed the volunteer institution policy on recruit,
training, service, and encouragement. Firstly, he proposed that the museum workers well
acknowledge the importance of volunteer service, and to recruit preferentially a novice through a
working volunteer’s recommendation, or among the retired teacher, or the members of cultural
institute and the participants of culture & education programs is efficient. Secondly, he proposed
the docent education program that the museum prepares for a systematic education program
with a responsibili미 in connection with a university to perform actively, and emphasized the
adequate works division, the arrangement of responsible specialist, the establishment of various
kinds of compensation system, and the necessity of evaluation of their activities are required to
increase not only the degree of guided audiences' satisfaction but also the degree of the
volunteers’s their satisfaction.
