However, there are a lot of problems during the process of supply chain channels. This research is about the impact of service quality on the customer satisfaction in the business-to-consumer(B2C) e-commerce. It was performed by utilizing the methodology for measuring the degree of service quality which has been adopted in the service quality research area. The quality of service is made up of six dimensions(factors): reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, tangible, and convenience. Therefore, we studied the influence of these six factors upon the customer satisfaction, and the results will be summarized.

In this paper, we validate MEDIQUAL constructs through different media users in help desk. In a previous paper only two end-users' constructs were used: assurance and responsiveness. In this paper we extended MEDIQUAL constructs to include reliability, empathy, assurance, tangibles, and responsiveness, which are based on the SERVQUAL theory. The results suggested that: 1) five MEDIQUAL constructs were validated through the factor analysis. That is, importance of the constructs have relatively high correlations between measures of the same construct using different methods and low correlations between measures of construct that are expected to differ (Cronbach, 1971; Campbell and Fiske, 1959) 2) five MEDIQUAL constructs are statistically significant on media users' satisfaction in help desk service by regression analysis.

So, this study measures service quality of social commerce market using SERVQUAL model which was established by Parasuraman (1985). The impact on customer satisfaction was analysed using multiple regression analysis. As a result of the analysis, we found that the tangibility and empathy are important factors for service quality in the social commerce market.

The purpose of this study is to develop measurement items for quality cost in service industries. Quality cost is necessary in order to evaluate quality management activities. It is clear that the quality cost in service industry is different from manufacturing industry. Generally, in service industries, quality cost is very difficult to assess because it has a unique characteristics. This paper proposes an effective method for measuring quality cost in service industries. Based on the PAF (Prevention, Appraisal, Failure) cost model, we utilizes the concept of five demensions in SERVQUAL which are tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy. This paper also presents to a standard model for quality cost measurement in service industries.

This study analysed impact of service quality on customer satisfaction and loyalty in the take-out coffee shop. The switching barrier was also studied as a moderating effect. Particularly, this study focused on relationships between customer loyalty and switching barriers. A lot of previous studies interest only in customers satisfaction. This study also analysed relationships among service quality, customer satisfaction, switching barriers and brand loyalty. Eventually, service quality significantly affects customer satisfaction, moderating effects, brand loyalty and marketing performance. SERVQUAL model which was established by PZB (1988) was used as a service quality factors. The impact on customer satisfaction was analysed using multiple regression analysis. Simple regression analysis was used to find effects of customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. Additional factors of switching barriers was classified based on previous studies. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to find factors of customer loyalty among switching barriers. In the result, we can find that the importance of tangibles, responsiveness in service quality factors and contract cost, search cost and continuous cost in moderating effects.

온라인 쇼핑에 있어서 여성 고객의 서비스 품질 인식과 신뢰 문제는 중요한 이슈이다. 본 연구는 신뢰를 선의, 성실성, 능력의 관점에서, 그리고 서비스 품질을 유형성, 신빙성, 반응성, 확신성, 공감성의 관점에서 다차원적으로 접근하여 연구 가설과 모형을 설정하고 그 원인-결과 관계를 실증적으로 분석한다. 분석 결과, 확신성과 공감성 차원의 서비스 품질이 선의/성실성 차원의 신뢰에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 능력 차원의 신뢰에 영향을 미치는 것은 5개 서비스 품질 차원 중 오직 확신성뿐인 것으로 드러났다. 또한 고객 충성도에 실질적인 영향을 미치는 것은 확신성 차원의 서비스 품질과 능력 차원의 신뢰이라는 것이 확인되었다. 여성 고객이 인터넷 상점에 대해 충성도를 갖게 되는 이유가 그 인터넷 상점의 선의/성실성 때문이기보다는 능력 때문이라는 점은 온라인 기업들에게 시사하는 바가 크다. 더욱이 온라인 기업들은 서비스 품질, 구체적으로는 여성 고객의 확신성 인식을 제고하면 이것이 자사의 능력을 고객에게 입증하는 방법이 될 수 있고, 결과적으로 여성 고객의 재구매 의사나 우호적인 구전을 이끌어 낼 수 효과적인 방법이 될 수 있다는 점을 주목할 필요가 있다.

본 연구는 e-Learning 컨텐츠 품질과 서비스 품질 차원을 분류하고, 학습자 특성에 따른 e-Learning 성과와의 관계를 파악하는 것이다. 이에 기존 연구에 근거하여 e-Learning 컨텐츠 품질 차원을 교수설계, 내용성, 주의성으로 분류하고, 마케팅 분야의 정보 품질 모형 중에서 Parasuraman이 제시한 SERVQUAL 측정도구를 사용하여 e-Learning 서비스 품질 차원을 유형성, 신뢰성, 대응성, 확신성, 공감성으로 분류하였다. 이들 요인들이 e-Learning 성과(학습만족과 이용의도)에 어떤 영향을 미치는가를 실정적으로 검정하고자 한다. 이들 요인들 간의 매개적 역할을 하는 많은 요인들이 존재할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 학습자의 경험적, 태도적, 행동적 특성과 자기효능감과 같은 학습자 특성의 매개 효과에 주목하고 한다.

A considerable amount of research has focused on the dimensionality of service quality construct. To achieve and maintain their comprehensiveness and profitability, restaurant managers should manage and aim to continuously improve the level of service quality offered to their customers. This paper is focused on service quality in the Korean native cattle and imported beef restaurant industry in the Korea. So, this paper has adapted DINESERV scale so that restaurant managers can use it to determine how customers perceive the service quality in Korean native cattle beef restaurant and imported beef restaurant. The purpose of this research is to test the difference in importance and actual performance of 5 dimensions between the restaurants that sell the beef of Korean native cattle and imported cattle. The t-value is used to test difference of the importance and actual performance for DINESERV's 5 dimensions of the 2 restaurant types. But, there is no difference between Korean native cattle and imported beef restaurant.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the customer service factors and evaluation of consumer satisfaction on the purchase through the C2C E- commerce, focusing on the fashion goods. 190 college students who have purchased products via C2C E-commerce were surveyed. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, 1-test, Pearson＇s correlations, and multiple regression were used. As the results, 50.5% of respondents have purchased fashion products through C2C. Out of 4 C2C characteristics factors. there was statistically the significant difference in only ＇entertainment factor＇ between males and females. All five SERVQUAL＇s factors used for measuring service factors in this study were correlated to customer satisfactions scores. Also. results of multiple regression revealed that assurance, empathy, and reliability were significantly to related to customer satisfaction. Based on these results, fashion marketing strategy for C2C development would be suggested.
