Resumo |
This study employed a 3 x 2 x 2 full-factorial, between-subjects design experiment involving locus of attribution, concern, and the level of authority of the employee performing the recovery on consumers’ postcomplaint evaluations. The research, conducted in a restaurant context, involved a sample of 411 undergraduate students. Findings suggest that customers are less dissatisfied and more likely to revisit the restaurant when the location of the cause of the failure is internal (i.e., they are to blame). In addition, consumers are less likely to repurchase when the manager, as opposed to the waiter, is responsible for the service failure.<br /> |
