And this verifies the relationship between the alternative attraction and the intention of conversion as the action after the restoration from the unsuccessful services. Moreover, it analyzes the mediation effect that a formation of reliance through the restoration of unsuccessful services has. To achieve the purpose of this study, the subject got decided as women who are customers of private spa facilities situated in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do region for the purpose of skin care in 1 year recently. After understanding their experiences of complaining about the services, this study investigates the alternative attraction and the intention of conversion as the next action and the perception of fairness and trust in the efforts of Spa service business for recovery. As the result of verifying hypothesis, it is shown that the recovery satisfaction increases when the 3 points of the distributive justice, procedural justice, and interactional justice, which are the fairness factors of the effort to restore services according to the quality of service, are more positive. In the relation among recovery satisfaction, trust, the alternative attraction, and the intention of conversion, the result was that recovery satisfaction affects trust in positive way and alternative attraction in negative way. However, the positive and meaningful result came out in contrast with the hypothesis which predicted the negative effect of recovery satisfaction on the intention of conversion. Furthermore, it means that indirect effectiveness which carries trust and alternative attraction should be considered instead of the direct effectiveness that the recovery satisfaction affects on the intention of conversion. In this study, it can be interpreted that the combined increase of the trust and the alternative attraction makes the intention of conversion higher rather than the higher intention of conversion following the decrease of the recovery satisfaction in view of the result that the indirect effectiveness is high between the recovery effort and the intention of conversion. In the relation among the intention of conversion, trust, and alternative attraction, the intention of conversion got influenced in positive way and negative way by trust and alternative attraction respectively and trust influenced the alternative attraction negatively as well. It means the high quality of services or the recovery of services has a direct causation which carries conviction to the customers' intention of action.

고객이 서비스상의 실패에 대해 때로는 강한 부정적 반응을 보이기에 서비스를 제공하는 조직의 서비스회복능력은 고객만족을 달성하기 위해 강력하고 효율적으로 운영되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구는 온라인상의 서비스인 ISP업체(10개의 회사)를 대상으로 온라인 서비스 상에서 고객이 서비스상의 불만을 경험할 때 기업이 고객의 불만을 회복시켜 만족으로 전환시키려는 회복속성들이 실제로 고객이 가지는 분배상의 공정성, 절차상의 공정성 및 상호작용 공정성에 어떤 영향을 미치는가를 실증적으로 검증하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 10개의 ISP업체를 선정하고 해당 업체에 대해 불만을 가진 고객들이 기업의 불만제거 노력에 대해 평가하도록 하였다. 가설 검증을 위해 LISREL을 이용하여 서비스의 회복속성인 보상, 신속한 반응, 무반응, 사과, 사전보상제공 등이 분배상공정성, 절차상 공정성, 상호작용 공정성에 직접적으로 미치는 효과를 파악하고 이 공정성의 요인들이 만족에 미치는 영향도 실증적으로 검증하였다. 온라인 상이라는 새로운 환경을 고려하여 기존의 모델에서 간과된 부분을 확인하기 위해 확장 모델을 제시하여 새로운 의미를 가진 경로가 존재하는지 확인하고 이 부분에서 유의적인지 않은 경로를 배제한 수정모델을 제시하였다. 기존의 연구를 바탕으로 제시된 가설은 연구모델에서 경로 계수를 추정하고 이에 대한 t값을 통해 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 제시하는 시사점으로는 고객의 서비스 실패 및 회복상황에 대한 평가의 이론적 원칙을 설명하고 관리자에게 각각의 서비스 실패와 일치하는 서비스 회복전략을 제시하여 운영상의 가이드 라인을 제시한다고 할 수 있다
