Abstract

Service environments are known to have effects on quality recognition in fine-dining and family type restaurants. The current study explores that the effects are also likely in the fast-food type ones. To verify the research method factor and reliability analysis of SPSS version 18.0 are applied. The program is also used to test the influences among variables. With multiple regression analysis the study finds that there is a significant effect of service environment on quality recognition in fast-food type restaurants. The study also finds that employees' uniform and cleanliness are more influential than waiting time which is generally known as a key factor in fast food service restaurants.

본 연구는 경제적인 가격에 간단하고 신속한 음식을 제공함으로써 전략적으로 포지션닝하고 있는 패스트푸드 유형의 레스토랑에서도 고급레스토랑이나 패밀리 레스토랑의 경우와 마찬가지로 서비스 환경이 고객들의 품질인지에 유사한 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 하였다. 또한 종업원의 외재적 속성인 복장과 청결의 정도와 서비스 대기시간이 품질인지에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 파악하고자 하였다. 연구의 방법은 SPSS 18.0을 이용하여 요인분석, 신뢰분석을 통하여 연구의 타당성을 입증하였고, 영향정도를 파악하기 위해서는 다중회귀분석을 이용하였다. 연구 결과 서비스 환경과 종업원의 복장 및 청결, 그리고 대기 시간은 서비스 품질인지에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었으며, 종업원들의 복장 및 청결성이 패스트푸드레스토랑에서 중요한 요인으로 알려져 있는 시간적 요인보다 품질인지에 더 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었다.
