The main objective of this study was to test the impact of service quality dimensions on customer satisfaction. The conceptual model proposed in the study postulated that service quality impacts on customer satisfaction directly. The model also postulated that service quality has a positive relationship with customer satisfaction, and tested them through Multiple Regression to find their significance. Questionnaires were distributed to gather data. The SERVQUAL instrument has a useful diagnostic role to play in assessing and monitoring service quality in banks. The results of the study confirmed the five factors of service quality with customer satisfaction were significant in all factors of service quality. Reliability, Responsiveness, Empathy, Assurance, and Tangibles are significant determinants of customer satisfaction. Thus, service quality can be used to predict customer satisfaction. The research has shown a positive relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction. This research concluded that service quality is the basic and also most important factor that impacts customer satisfaction. This finding reinforces the need for banks managers to place an emphasis on the underlying dimensions of service quality, especially on Assurance, and should start with improving service quality in order to raise customer satisfaction.

소매서비스업은 고객서비스의 제공을 통해 차별화를 시도하면서도 서비스의 생산 및 전달과정에 참여하는 고객의 행동을 관리할 필요가 있다. 소매서비스업에서 고객참여행동을 적절히 활용하기 위해서는 소매서비스업에 따른 고객참여행동의 수준을 보다 면밀히 파악하고 알아야 할 필요가 제기된다. 본 연구에서는 국내의 주요한 소매서비스업을 선별하여 고객참여행동의 수준을 파악해 보고자 한다. 4가지 소매서비스업 유형(접촉의 정도와 참여행동 수준의 정도에 따라 구분된 패밀리 레스토랑, 미용서비스, 병원서비스, 교육서비스)에 따라 고객참여행동의 하위차원 (적극성, 소통성, 교감성, 순응성)이 어떤 수준의 차이를 보이는 지를 실증적으로 확인하고자 한다. 연구의 결과, 적극성과 소통성에 있어서는 소매서비스 유형별로 유의하게 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으나, 교감성의 경우에는 집단 간의 차이가 유의하지 않았고, 순응성의 경우에는 한계수준에서 집단 간의 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 네 가지 소매서비스 유형중 가장 고객참여행동의 수준이 높은 소매서비스는 병원서비스이며, 다음으로 패밀리레스토랑, 교육서비스, 그리고 미용실서비스로 나타났다. 이로써, 본 연구는 소매서비스업 유형에 따라 고객참여행동의 내용과 양이 다르다는 것을 실증하였으며, 소매서비스업 유형별 고객참여행동의 수준을 확인하고 이를 고객참여행동 유도전략에 활용할 수 있는 계기를 마련하였다.

Purpose - Customer satisfaction has been considered important as a way to retain current customers. Specifically, the retention of current customers through customer satisfaction has been considered important in an industry where competition between companies is fierce. Major Korean airlines have confronted fierce competition with the growth of low cost carriers (LCCs). In order to survive, these airlines need to retain their customers. This research aims to investigate the relationships between customer satisfaction and the customer intention to remain loyal. Moreover, this study examines how the influence of customer satisfaction on customer loyalty is moderated by gender. Research design, data, and methodology - A regression model is developed in which customer satisfaction, gender, and an interaction of satisfaction and gender are predictors and the customer's intention to remain loyal is a dependent variable. To analyze this research model, data were collected from 402 university students taking a marketing class in universities in Seoul, Chung-Cheong province, and Kangwon province. After eliminating data from students who had never flown and data with missing values, a final sample of 201 was analyzed. The hypotheses were tested using SPSS 21.0. Internal reliability was supported by the results of Cronbach's α. Multiple regression was performed. Results - Empirical results showed that customer satisfaction toward the airline's service had a positive influence on the customer intention to remain loyal to the airlines. Moreover, this influence was moderated by gender. More specifically, a male customer's intention to remain loyal was more determined by his satisfaction toward airline service than a female customer's. Conclusions - This research contributes to the aviation service marketing literature by showing how customer satisfaction influences customer intention to remain loyal and how this influence is moderated by gender. More specifically, male customer loyalty is more determined by airline service satisfaction than female customers. These results have manager implications for major Korean airlines in terms of customer satisfaction and gender as ways to enhance customer retention.

고객세분화는 기업이 관계하고 있는 고객을 이해하고 그 이해를 바탕으로 효과적인 고객관리를 수행하기 위해 필수적인 요소인데 데이터마이닝이 기업의 정보관리영역에 적극적으로 활용되면서 보다 과학적이고 최적화된 형태로 개발되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 신용카드고객 의 카드사용행태에 근거하여 각 고객을 서로 유사한 사용행태를 보이는 고객군으로 세분화하는 과정을 소개하였다. 고객이 실제로 신용카드를 사용하면서 발생시킨 거래정보에만 의존하여 고객세분화를 개발하였으며 이는 마케팅의 관점에서 상당히 의미있는 내용이 될 수 있다. 고객세분화의 개발을 위하여 데이터마이닝기법인 k-평균 군집방법과 최장연결법에 의한 계보적 군집방법을 단계적으로 활용하는 이단계 군집방법을 이용하였다.

Previous studies have focused on service quality by examining customer satisfaction and retention. Little, if any work has been conducted exploring the emotional state of customers and that state in con-nection to perceived service quality. The objective of this study was to explore and determine how a customer's emotions perceive and respond to service quality within family restaurants. It was found that within a positive emotional field, product and personal service quality showed a high correlation to the positive image while customers experiencing negative emotions had the perception of poorer product and personal service quality as well as a worse impression of cleanliness. Cleanliness was not connected to the issue of customer satisfaction but each of these three factors, whether positive or negative, led to the creation and mediation of an image which in itself directly resulted in customer satisfaction. Customer emotional fields are not merely the by-product of quality issues, or satisfaction but in fact the foundation by which all other factors must be considered and analyzed. Family restaurateurs need to focus on the customer's emotional well-being to create customer satisfaction.

Relationship marketing research has traditionally focused on the relationship among customer satisfaction, trust, and customer commitment, while assuming that the causal relationship of customer $satisfaction{\rightarrow}trust{\rightarrow}commitment$ is well understand. However, recently many scholars argue that customer satisfaction, trust, commitment can not explain long-term orientation fully, and suggest the need for more extensive researches investigating the determinants of long-term relational retention. The purpose of this study was to explained the relationship development process through the mediation effect of contact intensity and relationship termination cost between customer satisfaction and trust, and between trust and commitment, and an analysis the causal relationship among these variables. The results were as follows. First, the customer satisfaction had both direct and indirect effects on trust mediated by contact intensity. Second, the trust had both direct and indirect effects on commitment mediated by relationship termination cost. Third, the commitment influenced long-term orientation. Finally, the empirical results confirmed that the model add to the concept of mediation with contact intensity and relationship termination cost plays a strong, central role in explaining relationship development process between customer and fashion retail stores.
