Continuous quality improvement through process refinement is a must for survival of all industries in the contemporary market place. This is true for both manufacturing and service sectors. While manufacturing has spearheaded quality efforts, the service sector has lagged behind primarily because of inherent difficulties. Customer satisfaction is perhaps the most important performance measure for service quality. There are a number of quality dimensions in service quality, such as reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangibles. An issue of concern is ‘how can one have a unified measure of service quality across all the dimensions?' The intent of this paper is to determine if the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method could be used to derive a single quality index. AHP is a quantitative technique that structures a multi-attribute, multi-person and multi-period problem hierarchically so that solutions are facilitated. This paper presents the development of an AHP model and the derivation of a Quality Index through it. The model is used in a hypothetical case and a quality index was developed. The advantages of using such a technique are discussed.

Purpose - There is little research on the market of foreign infant education materials. So, it is needed to deeply examine the development and preference factors of foreign infant education materials. Therefore, this study presents a future method and model for analyzing the important variables of buying foreign infant education materials. Research design, data, and methodology - The conjoint analysis method and model of this paper is used as follows. Conjoint analysis method is possible to derive the attributes to be analyzed through the model of the preferred factors, and then to derive the sub-attributes of the attributes. Results - This study derived preference attributes between brand benefit, equity (brand image, loyalty, awareness), distribution network (department store, specialty stores, discount store, internet mall), and service quality (tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy) in infant education materials conjoint model. Conclusions - Since the opening of the education market in Korea, parents have a high education level due to low birth rate. The advantages of the conjoint analysis method have been extended to the study of infant education materials. Based on this, this paper will identify important attributes that are considered in preference of foreign infant education materials and help to establish and implement future marketing strategies.

The growth of Bandung's tourism industry has had a massive impact on the hotel sector. Most tourists visiting Bandung are domestic tourists and tend to be modest spenders fitting the profile of a mid-market (2/3 star) hotel guest. As competition has increased mid-market hotels have come under pressure from upmarket (4/5 star) and budget hotels committed to cutting prices. There is also competition with the mid-market hotel sector, which means that the 2/3 star hotels have to keep innovating in order to remain competitive. This study uses the Service Quality framework to describe customer expectations and identify gaps in hotel services. A questionnaire survey of 105 local tourists who had stayed in 2/3 star hotels in Bandung showed that the most important dimension is responsiveness, following by reliability, assurance, tangibles and empathy. Thus we conclude that local tourists' primary expectations are that hotels will deliver the service they have promised, be responsive to guests' needs and comply with service standards. Furthermore, these findings validate the earlier prediction that comparing 2/3 star hotel with 5/4 start hotel, the customers are having preliminary knowledge on facilities limitation and friendliness. Tourists using 2/3 star hotels tend to be prepared to accept limited facilities and less friendly staff service.

본 연구는 기대와 성과간의 비교를 통하여 이용자 관점에서 도서관 온라인 서비스에 대한 품질을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 22개 SERVQUAL 문항에 정보품질에 관련된 7개 항목을 추가하여 총29개의 측정항목을 개발하였고, 대덕연구단지내의 한 연구 도서관을 대상으로 온라인 설문을 실시하여 데이터를 수집하였다. 요인분석 결과 온라인 서비스의 품질을 결정하는 요소인 서비스차원은 5개로 묶여졌고, 정보품질 차원은 별개로 분리되어 나타났다. IPA(Importance Performance Analysis) 분석결과 정보품질, 신뢰성, 그리고 보증성이 중요한 서비스 요소임이 밝혀졌고, 다중회귀분석 결과 이용자의 만족에 가장 커다란 영향을 미치는 서비스 요소로는 유형성과 정보품질인 것으로 규명되었다.

1990년대에 들어서면서 보편화되기 시작한 정보화의 물결은 도서관의 서비스 형태에도 많은 변화를 가져왔다. 그러나 도서관 이용자의 입장에서는 어떤 형태의 서비스가 제공되더라도 기본적으로 이용자가 제공받는 서비스일 뿐, 도서관 이용에 대한 느낌이나 감정 등을 포함하는 서비스의 만족도는 제공받은 서비스의 품질에 의해서 좌우될 수밖에 없다는 특성을 갖는다. 본 연구는 도서관의 서비스 제공이 갖는 이러한 기본적인 특성에 착안하여 이용자들의 관점에서 서비스의 품질 수준을 평가하고, 이에 영향을 미치는 주된 요인들을 파악하여, 향후 더욱 높은 수준의 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 기틀을 마련하고자 하였다. 연구의 모형으로는 서비스 품질을 측정할 때 이용되는 서브퀄(SERVQUAL) 모형을 채택하여, 전문도서관에서 이용자들이 느끼는 서비스 품질에 대한 기대와 지각을 측정하였다.

The objective of this study was to determine of the meal and service quality satisfaction of University foodservice institutions. 462 University students in the Seoul area were surveyed between October 14 and 21, 2002. The result of this study showed that $63.9\%$ of University students were eating 1-4 times per week at University foodservice institutions. The main reasons for eating at University foodservice institutions were inexpensive price $(60.8\%)$ and economy of time $(31.8\%)$. The reasons for not eating at University foodservice institutions were tasteless food $(50.3\%)$ and dissatisfaction with the menu $(22.7\%)$. Most University students $(75.5\%)$ considered taste of food in selecting from the menu. An importance-performance analysis of the meals served at University foodservice institutions showed that variety of the menu and taste of the food were of poor performance, but of high importance. The service quality of University foodservice institutions using a modified Servqual model were tangibles(-0.83), empathy(-1.05), reliability(-1.09) and assurance(-1.13) in decreasing order.
