A Study of Price and Quality in Service Operations

Chen, Injazz J., Gupta, Atul, Rom, Walter·1994·International Journal of Service Industry Management

Abstract

Studies the relationship between perceived price and perceived quality for the three types of services, namely, pure, mixed, and quasi‐manufacturing classified by Chase and Tansik, and the relative importance of five dimensions of service quality identified by Parasuraman et al. Finds that the relationship between perceived price and the five dimensions of service quality appears to be very weak for pure and quasi‐manufacturing services, but is statistically significant for mixed service. Reliability dimension is statistically significant for all three types of service. Tangible dimension is a critical variable for mixed service while the empathy dimension is important for quasi‐manufacturing service. On the other hand, the relationship between perceived price and overall service‐quality is significant for quasi‐manufacturing service, but is weak for pure and mixed services.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
