Purpose: The purpose of this study is to derive various ways to realize customer satisfaction for the development of the service industry by exploring research trends related to customer satisfaction, which is presented as an important goal in the service industry. Research design, data and methodology: To this end, 1,456 papers with English abstracts using scienceON were used for analysis. Using Python 3.7, word frequency and co-occurrence analysis were confirmed, and topics related to research trends were classified through BERTopic and LDA. Results: As a result of word frequency and co-occurrence frequency analysis, words such as quality, intention, and loyalty appeared frequently. As a result of BERTopic and LDA, 11 topics such as 'catering service' and 'brand justice' were derived. As a result of trend analysis, it was confirmed that 'brand justice' and 'internet shopping' are emerging as relatively important research topics, but CRM is less interested. Conclusions: The results of this study showed that the 7P marketing strategy is working to some extent. Therefore, it is proposed to conduct research related to acquisition of good customers through service price, customer lifetime value application, and customer segmentation that are expected to be needed for the development of the service industry.

Purpose - This study reviews the delivery of child welfare service quality and examines how the dimensions of the variables of customer satisfaction impact the results from a service distribution perspective. This study differs from existing research since it proposes that a recognized level of child welfare service quality is necessary to achieve customer satisfaction from the perspective of service distribution. Research design, data, and methodology - This study explores child welfare service quality factors that affect customer satisfaction. The study examines and analyzes demographic variables, service quality dimensions, and the causal relationships between child welfare service quality and customer satisfaction. Data from 300 child welfare cases were collected from organizations in Korea in the areas of Busan and Gyeongsangnamdo. The methods of analysis are as follow. First, using descriptive analysis frequency, the percentages were evaluated to assess the demographic variables. Second, Cronbach's α was used to test reliability and to evaluate the internal consistency of the measuring of items. Third, multiple regression analysis was conducted to find out how much the independent variable can affect customer satisfaction. Results - Five factors of child welfare service quality were identified in three categories: process quality (assurance, empathy), results quality (reliability, caring), and physical environment quality (tangibles). There were significant differences among the effects of the child welfare service quality factors on customer satisfaction. A multiple regression analysis was done with process quality (assurance, empathy), results quality (reliability, caring) and physical environment quality (tangibles) to test the hypothesis: assurance (t=2.434, p<0.05), empathy (t=3.677, p<0.001), reliability (t=3.271, p<0.05), caring (t=4.380, p<0.000), and tangibles (t=3.654, p<0.01) had a positive influence on child welfare service quality from a service distribution perspective. Therefore, hypotheses 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 were supported. In addition, multiple regression analysis on the effects of the variables showed that caring (β=0.273), empathy (β=0.246), tangibles (β=0.265), reliability (β=0.152), and assurance (β=0.131) all had a positive and strong influence on child welfare service quality from a service distribution perspective. Therefore, all child welfare service quality categories (process, results and physical environment quality) were positively statistically significant. Conclusion - In this study, the main findings can be summarized as follows. First, the quality of service of child welfare consists of three dimensions of quality: process quality, results quality, and physical environment quality. The results of the multiple regression analysis also showed that caring and reliability were confirmed as more meaningful variables by the increasing loading factors. Second, the family members involved in child welfare proposed caring as the most important variable among the dimensions of service quality. Third, the results of the hypothesis testing using regression showed that all child welfare service quality factors had a positive impact on customer satisfaction. The results of the study could provide useful information to help increase the effectiveness of delivery strategies for child welfare service quality from a service distribution perspective.

Conventional research on customer relationship management(CRM) in general has focused on the effects of individual customer's satisfaction, retention and profit management. However, corporate customers are more profitable than individual customers because of high volume and frequent transactions between companies. In this article, a prototype for a corporate customer relationship management is developed in the postal service. First, the frequency and amount of customers' usage were examined, and thereby the corporate customer rating scheme was established to provide customized service. Second, five different types of usage patterns were determined using clustering analysis. In addition, we presented the rationales behind the five types of patterns. Third, RFM(recency, frequency, monetary) analysis was performed, and then action plans were developed to increase sales. Finally, the prototype software was developed to automatically perform the above analysis using MS Excel program.

The purpose of this study was to investigate service quality of department stores located in Daegu and to examine the effects of service quality on customer satisfaction and store patronage. Data(N=285) were analyzed, using factor analysis, 1-test, ANOVA and regression analysis. The results suggest that service quality was divided into 3 dimensions (reliability, tangibles, empathy) and that service quality enhanced customer satisfaction and store patronage. Specifically, tangibles had a positive effect on customer satisfaction, and reliability had a positive effect on store patronage. Also, personal characteristics were related to service quality, customer satisfaction and store patronage. For instance, male customers evaluated tangibles of service quality more positively than female customers. The married evaluated service quality, customer satisfaction and store patronage more positively than the single. While people aged above 36 yews evaluated reliability and empathy of service quality more positively than people aged below 35 years, people in their 20s evaluated tangibles more positively than people in their 30s. People in a higher income bracket (i. e., \301,000,000- \400,000,000) evaluated reliability and empathy of service quality and store patronage most positively, while people in a lower bracket (i. e., below \200,000,000) evaluated most negatively.

The purposes of this study were to measure the service mind and customer orientation of employees and to identify the effect of service mind on customer orientation in elementary school foodservices. The questionnaires were distributed to foodservice employees of the 19 elementary schools, but collected from 12 schools in Gwangju, Gyeonggi. The statistical data analysis was completed using SPSS (ver. 18.0) for the independent sample t-test, ANOVA, Cronbach's alpha, principal component analysis, hierarchical & K-means cluster analysis, Pearson' correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Foodservice employees highly rated their service mind (3.94 out of 5 points), especially their perceptions on the importance of service (4.13 points). The effort to provide service was significantly different depending on the serving place (P<0.05). Employees had a high level of customer orientation (4.02 points), which was significantly influenced by age, position, or career (P<0.05), and cook license (P<0.01). As a result of cluster analysis for service mind, employees were divided into two groups: a low-service mind group (cluster 1) and a high-service mind group (cluster 2). Cluster 2 had a significantly higher overall customer orientation than cluster 1 (P<0.001). The pride in providing services (${\beta}$=0.390, P<0.01) and the perception of the importance of services (${\beta}$=0.297, P<0.05) showed a significant and positive effect on customer orientation.
