Impact of waiting attribution and consumer's mood on perceived quality

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to determine the effect of waiting attribution and consumers' mood on the perceived quality of a bank's service. The study used video simulations of bank clients in waiting lines to elicit responses to a questionnaire. The results show that consumers' mood affects service quality aspects related to the personnel in contact with consumers, while waiting attribution affects the relational aspects of service quality. Moreover, mood has no effect on the waiting attribution process.
