Many university libraries, facing financial difficulties, have been forced to operate on a tighter budget. Such trend has created the need for an objective standard that will prioritize current library services. This study derives service quality factor via open coding from internet postings posted in the last five years on the Korean National Open University's library website, and also calculates the customer satisfaction quotient and dissatisfaction quotient using the Kano Model and Timko's Customer Satisfaction Coefficient. The result draws 25 service quality factors across 3 categories consisting of: (i) 8 attractive qualities, (ii) 15 one-dimensional qualities and (iii) 2 reverse qualities. The study, through the calculation of Timko's Customer Satisfaction Coefficient per service quality, proposes an intensive service that can prioritize the efficient use of library budget.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the COVID-19 pandemic-driven effect changes of quality factors on customer satisfaction in Korean Police Civil Affairs Service. Methods: This study fitted a regression model to the data collected by Korean National Police Agency from 2019 (before COVID-19 pandemic) to 2020 (during COVID-19 pandemic). In order to simultaneously estimate the effects of major seven quality factors on customer satisfaction for 'before the pandemic' and for 'during the pandemic', the regression model included not only customer satisfaction as the dependent variable, but also the fourteen independent variables consisting of the seven quality factors and their seven interaction terms. The interaction terms were defined by multiplying each quality factor by a dummy variable indicating either before or during the pandemic. Therefore, the coefficient estimates of the interaction terms indicate the changes of their corresponding quality factor effects on customer satisfaction between before and during the pandemic. The double bootstrap method was applied to test the significance of coefficient estimates. Results: Both before and during the pandemic, all quality factors had positive effects on customer satisfaction. However, these effects changed differently from before to during the pandemic: (increased) supportability, sincerity, and convenience; (decreased) integrity, professionalism, and fairness; (unchanged) promptness. Conclusion: This study found that the pandemic caused significant effect changes of quality factors on customer satisfaction in Korean Police Civil Affairs Service. This finding suggests the necessity of carefully monitoring such effect changes to effectively and efficiently improve customer satisfaction. This study also identified that from before to during the pandemic, supportability, sincerity, and convenience become more important and hence, need to be better managed.

This study aims to explore the Internet personal broadcasting quality factors that influence viewer satisfaction and dissatisfaction based on the motivation-hygiene theory. Specifically, the quality factors that affect viewer satisfaction of Internet personal broadcasting are derived from the perspectives of extrinsic (contents usefulness and media usability), intrinsic (emotional/cognitive/behavioral enjoyment and creator characteristics), and social motivation (visibility, subjective norm, image, sociality). The data of 200 respondents was used to analyze the relative impact of satisfaction and dissatisfaction with the Kano model, which assumes that viewer satisfaction at both functional and emotional levels varies over quality attributes. In the empirical analysis, the quality factors were classified into attractive, one-dimensional, must-be, and indifferent quality. In addition, it was found that the customer satisfaction coefficient was high in the order of uniqueness, differentiation, and visibility. On the other hand, as a result of applying the dissatisfaction coefficient, it was identified in the order of donation, content reliability, and creator responsiveness.

The development of competitive new product is essential in competitiveness power of modern enterprises. The enterprises need to develop new products for its continuous growth. In this paper, a new product development process which reflect voice of customer in design of the product is suggested. Delighters in Kano's quality model are applied in primary design step. In the main design step, we analyze that whether Kano's primary satisfiers satisfy the customer needs which was found using Timko's customer satisfaction coefficient. It is shown that Kano's delighters and Timko's customer satisfaction coefficient are very effective in new product development.

This study is aimed at analyzing the characteristics of each service quality and the requirements of the customers followed by the classification of service quality factors of youth sports clubs by using Kano model. For this purpose, a survey was conducted by targeting on 257 subjects in 10 youth sports clubs in Seoul and Gyeonggi areas and for data processing, Microsoft Office Excel 2016 and SPSS 22.0 were used to carry out Frequency Analysis, Factor Analysis, Reliability Analysis, Kano model Quality Classification, Timko's Customer Satisfaction Coefficient, and the computation and analysis of Public-service Customer Satisfaction Index. The following shows the research findings. First, as a result of using Kano model to classify each item of the service quality factors of the youth sports club through Dualistic Quality Theory Attribution, one-dimensional quality elements resulted in all 22 items of service quality factors of youth sports club. Second, the customer satisfaction coefficient computation result showed that satisfaction coefficient appeared by the order of 'kind response of the instructor,'(0.81), 'attitude of the instructor'(0.80), 'systematic lecture program'(0.76), and 'variety of program)'(0.76) and dissatisfaction coefficient appeared by the order of 'clean and pleasant facility'(-0.79), 'attitude of the instructor'(-0.76), 'kind response of the instructor'(-0.76), 'convenience of parking facility'(-0.73), and 'promptness of business process'(-0.73). Third, the public-service customer satisfaction index placing appeared by the order of the 'attitude of the instructor', 'kind response of the instructor', 'clean and pleasant facility' and 'systematic lecture program'.

Many Papers of Customer satisfaction are issued. Kana who have proposed 'Quality Dualism' for grasping of Customers' potential needs and Timko who have proposed 'Customer Satisfaction coefficient' that made up for the weak points of Kana' s model. But the model of Timko which have weak points as well that does not consider the indifferent Quality of the Kana's model. In this paper, I propose 'Total Customer Satisfaction coefficient' that made up for the weak points of Timko's Model also Kana's Model. And I have applied my method to the department store.

This study investigates the gender differences in determinants of customers' satisfaction when purchasing online beauty and cosmetics products in Vietnamese market. To do so, we construct a data set via online survey of 419 Vietnamese customers including both males and females, and examine such sample using t-tests and multiple regressions. Our regression model is constructed based on our five-construct model including online shopping experience, customer service, external incentives, security and privacy, and personal characteristics. The t-tests results reveal that the mean difference of customer satisfaction (negative coefficient) between the two groups of customers (females and males) is statistically significant. This suggests that the purchasing satisfaction of male customers is significantly higher than that of their female counterparts. Similarly, we also find that male customers are more satisfied with their online shopping experience, customer service and external incentives offered by the online sellers than female peers. Furthermore, regression results for full sample show that, on average, the online shopping experience, customer service and external incentives are significantly and positively related to customer satisfaction. Yet, such positive effect of customer service on customer satisfaction is more likely for males while females' satisfaction is more positively influenced by security and privacy.
