When consumers complain: A path analysis of the key antecedents of consumer complaint response estimates 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
When do consumers complain? This study probes this question by developing a conceptual framework that includes multiple theoretical perspectives, empirically testing a portion of the proposed model, and using dissatisfaction/complaint data from three different service industries. The hypothesized model uses multidimensional consumer complaint response estimates including voice, private, and third-party responses as dependent variables. Results support several proposed relationships, provide a high level of explained variance, and indicate a moderating role for dissatisfaction intensity. The complaint response estimates are characterized by disparate influence pathways, and expectancy value judgments emerge as critical determinants with positive and negative crossover effects. Attitude toward complaining is more dominant under low dissatisfaction intensity than it is under the high dissatisfaction condition. Important differences emerge across service categories. Implications of this work for managers and researchers in understanding when consumers complain are enumerated. 相似文献

This paper presents stories of adversity, as voiced by those that live and work with panic attacks. Respondents of this exploratory, phenomenological study, conducted in Sydney, Australia, shared their experiences of living and working with panic attacks. Two themes (and five sub-themes) of their reported lived experiences are presented here, including: A Changed Life (including sub-themes of: a seismic shift; a creeping change, and not knowing); and, Being Alone (with sub-themes of: withdrawing from the world; and professional non-support). Amidst their experiences of panic-related adversity, the 18 respondents reported trying to maintain—often without success—their working lives and selves. The often profound implications for employees working with panic are discussed, including the urgent need for further research. 相似文献

This paper reports findings from the first, qualitative stage of a national sequential, mixed method study of bullying in
the Australian nursing workplace. Twenty-six nurses who had experience of workplace bullying were recruited from two Australian
public sector health care organizations. Examining the narrative data from the viewpoint of bullying being a corrupt activity
we present an alternative perspective on group acts of bullying. By exploring bullying as corrupt behaviour, this paper challenges
the assumption that bullying can be principally considered a series of isolated events stemming from interpersonal conflict,
organizational pressures, or poor work design. Corruption in organizations has not previously been linked with or compared
to bullying. In revealing the manner in which actors can engage in corrupt conduct that includes bullying, the findings from
our study offer important implications for the management of workplace bullying as a serious and corrupt activity. 相似文献

This paper shares some pertinent findings from an initial, qualitative stage of a larger, national study currently being undertaken
in Australia, exploring the support needs of parents who are working full time and caring for a child with chronic illness.
The findings presented here depict the negative impact of these parents caring responsibilities on their work life and the
increased stress they experience trying to maintain full time employment. In-depth interviews revealed how these parents had
to rearrange their working hours, use up their leave entitlements, work unsatisfactory hours, sacrifice their careers and
even change their jobs in order to balance their dual roles. In addition, the findings also highlight the negative and unsupportive
attitude that employers had towards these parents. These employment conditions were extremely stressful and frustrating for
parents affecting their physical and emotional well being. 相似文献

The role of religiousness as a variable in models of consumer behavior is not well-established. Research findings in this
area tend to be sparse and conflicting, and measurement issues have yet to be addressed. This article reports on an empirical
investigation of religiosity in a causal modeling framework. The results suggest that religiosity is a viable consumer behavior
construct in that it (1) did correlate with the life-style variables selected; (2) contributed directly to the model along
with sex, age, and income; and (3) was successfully operationalized through multiple measures. 相似文献

As increased work demands and longer working hours become the reality for many employees, the concept of work-life balance
has received increasing attention. This paper presents findings from an exploratory study of Australian middle managers, which
investigated the impact of middle managers’ daily organizational experiences on their lives both in and beyond the workplace.
We focus on respondents’ reports of the difficulty in achieving work-life balance, specifically, the organizational impediments
to creating balance. Three particular areas where these impediments were apparent are: the impact of new technologies; limits
to autonomy and control in the middle management role; and difficulties in taking advantage of flexibility initiatives in
the workplace. As middle managers are caught in the middle between work and personal life, there is a need for organizations
to support middle managers’ efforts to achieve work-life balance if the organization’s long-term goals are to be achieved. 相似文献

The UK wildlife outbound tourism sector is a relatively uncharted area of academic study both in terms of demand and supply. The purpose of this paper is first, to move towards a typology of British wildlife tour operators and their favoured destinations, and secondly, to introduce the relationship between satisfying the consumer and sustainable product/destination management. A systematic review of wildlife tourism brochures and in-depth interviews with key stakeholders indicate a gradual shift from a specialised market offering high involvement in a particular species (usually birds) to a more general market looking for an interesting, but pleasant and relaxing holiday based around a general interest in nature and the environment. Both markets coexist in a complex product and tourist spectrum with neither market being entirely inclusive. Instead there is a degree of movement between one and the other which has led to operators offering a wider range of products to suit the hard-core expert and the novice enthusiast. However, product development and satisfying the consumer implies some difficult management dilemmas such as the use of tape recordings, food provisioning and the constant search for new destinations to offer experienced tourists something different. 相似文献

Drawing from several diverse streams of research, the authors develop the rationale and empirical background for considering
the role of sales manager communication practices. Using a multifaceted conceptualization of communication as its base, the
study justifies, proposes, and evaluates a model describing the relations among sales managers’ communication practices and
salesperson ambiguity, satisfaction, performance, and commitment. The results support the hypothesized model and suggest that
sales manager communication practices are associated with these important salesperson job outcomes.
