Furthermore, whether there were significant differences in the service dimensions and importances of services dimensions were examined by apparel product type(casual, formal products). Data were collected from women who were over 20 years old that live in Seoul. A questionnaire developed based on the previous researches and data were analyzed by factor analysis, t-test, ANOVA, frequency analysis. The results of this study were as follows: First, services of salesperson were divided into six dimensions: \"focused on customers\", \"knowledge/competency\", \"courtesy\", \"appearance/image\", \"purchasing induction\", and \"concerning\". As to service dimension importance, consumers think that \"service focused on customers\" is the most important dimension of service. Second, results of examining the importance according to apparel product type showed that five of the six service dimensions in formal product sales were more important except for the \"knowledge\" related service. Last, as to demographic characteristic variables, people who were over 40 years old were likely to think \"purchasing induction\", \"appearance/image\", \"concerning\" service dimensions more important than the other ages. And it was found that consumers who spend less money on purchasing clothing in a month thought \"focused on customers\" service was more important than the other consumers. In conclusion store managers could apply these results to service education of salesperson and use on preservation and improvement of customer relationship.

Marketing strategists believe that the best way to satisfy customers is through satisfied employees. In fashion retail businesses, salespersons play a pivotal role for the success of business, since fashion products have emotional properties and customers' emotion is largely affected by personal selling at the point of purchases. The present study aims to examine relationships among internal service quality, job satisfaction, and organizational performance in fashion retail businesses. Specifically, the study will test the validity of applying service quality concept to the internal service targeting the sales person of fashion retailers and identify dimensions of internal service quality. Data were collected from salespersons of women's wear and imported brand stores at four major department stores. 205 survey responses were used for the final analysis. The factor analysis extracted empathy/tangibility, assurance, responsiveness and reliability factors. The structural path analysis and effect analysis indicated that the importance of assurance and responsiveness of internal service quality had significant direct effects on job satisfaction and significant indirect effects on organizational performance.

본 연구는 사용자가 급속히 증가하는 모바일 뱅킹 서비스 품질 측정을 통해 도출된 주요 요인을 기반으로 모바일 뱅킹 서비스의 전략을 도출하였다. 이를 위해 SERVQUAL 모형과 중요도-성과 도구를 활용하였다. 우선, 선행연구를 통해 모바일 뱅킹 서비스의 주요 요인을 SERVQUAL 모형을 이용해 사용자 만족에 영향을 주는 보증성, 고객지향성, 유형성, 신뢰성의 4가지 차원으로 분류했다. 이 요인들을 바탕으로 전략을 도출하기 위해 중요도-성과 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 사용자 만족에 가장 영향력이 높은 보증성 차원은 기대치는 높은데 비해 실제 성과가 낮아 중점개선부분으로, 고객지향성 차원은 기대와 성과가 모두 낮아서 만족도를 제고할 필요가 있었으며, 유형성 차원은 사용자가 실제 얻는 성과 수준은 높으나 기대치 수준은 그에 미치지 않아서 현재 수준 유지전략을, 신뢰성 차원은 성과도 높고 기대도 높아서 지속적 관리가 요구되는 전략이 필요함을 확인하였다.
