Abstract

This study compares Customer Satisfaction Index(CSI) and the weight for each dimension by applying various methods of weight calculation and attempts to suggest some implications. For the purpose, the study classified the methods of weight calculation into the subjective method and the statistical method. Constant sum scale was used for the subjective method, and the statistical method was again segmented into correlation analysis, principal component analysis, factor analysis, structural equation model. The findings showed that there is difference between the weights from the subjective method and the statistical method. The order of the weights by the analysis methods were classified with similar patterns. Besides, the weight for each dimension by different methods of weight calculation showed considerable deviation and revealed the difference of discrimination and stability among the dimensions. Lastly, the CSI calculated by various methods of weight calculation showed to be the highest in structural equation model, followed by in the order of regression analysis, correlation analysis, arithmetic mean, principal component analysis, constant sum scale and factor analysis. The CSI calculated by each method showed to have statistically significant difference.

본 연구는 다양한 가중치 산출방법을 적용하여 각 차원별 가중치 및 고객만족도지수를 비교하고 시사점을 밝혀보고자 한다. 이를 위해 가중치 산출방법을 주관적 방법과 통계적 방법으로 구분하고, 다시 주관적 방법은 고정총합법, 그리고 통계적 방법은 상관분석, 회귀분석, 주성분분석, 요인분석, 구조방정식으로 세분화하였다. 연구결과 주관적 방법과 통계적 방법에 의한 가중치는 서로 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 분석방법에 따른 가중치의 순위는 유사한 패턴으로 구분되었다. 그리고 가중치 산출방법에 따른 각 차원별 가중치는 큰 편차를 보여 차원간의 변별력 및 안정성에 차이를 나타냈다. 마지막으로 다양한 가중치 산출방법에 따른 고객만족도지수는 구조방정식, 회귀분석, 상관분석, 산술평균, 주성분분석, 고정총합법, 요인분석의 순으로 높게 나타났고, 각 방법론에 따른 고객만족도지수는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
