Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to identify the dimensions of experiential quality and examining the interrelationships among experiential quality, experiential satisfaction, perceived value, experiential trust and experiential loyalty using a multi-dimensional and hierarchical model as a framework perceived by coffee chain customers.

Design/methodology/approach

The data used in this study were based on a sample of 428 customers at Starbucks in Taipei City of Taiwan. Data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis.

Findings

The findings reveal that there are four primary dimensions and 13 sub-dimensions of experiential quality in a coffee chain. In addition, the results indicate that affective quality is identified as the most primary dimension of experiential quality perceived by coffee chain customers. Experiential quality significantly influences perceived value and experiential trust, respectively. Also, experiential satisfaction is influenced by perceived value, experiential quality and experiential trust. Furthermore, experiential satisfaction and experiential trust are determinants of experiential loyalty.

Originality/value

This is the first study identifying experiential quality, experiential satisfaction, perceived value, experiential trust and experiential loyalty in the context of coffee chains.

Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to test the relationships among the experiential quality dimensions, the green relationship quality dimensions, environmental friendliness, green support, green desire and green experiential loyalty in a green bed & breakfast (B&B) context.

Design/methodology/approach

The data used in this study are based on a sample of 517 customers staying at one green B&B in Yilan County of Taiwan. The predicted relationship is tested using structural equation modeling.

Findings

The empirical findings reveal the following: five dimensions (peer-to-peer quality, physical environment quality, outcome quality, venue quality and administration quality) constitute a multidimensional model to conceptualize and measure perceived experiential quality that can achieve green experiential satisfaction in addition to environmental friendliness; environmental friendliness has a direct influence on green trust and green experiential satisfaction, which has a positive significant influence on green support and green desire; and green trust, green experiential satisfaction and green support contribute to green experiential loyalty.

Practical implications

To increase the perceptions of experiential quality dimensions, green relationship quality dimensions, environmental friendliness, green support, green desire and green experiential loyalty, the findings of this study will help green B&B management develop and implement market-orientated service strategies.

Originality/value

This paper provides data that result in a better understanding of the relationships among experiential quality dimensions, green relationship quality dimensions, environmental friendliness, green support, green desire and green experiential loyalty in a green B&B setting.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to explore the structure and dimensions of experiential quality in the context of Indonesian Bank 4.0. Moreover, this study also explains the process of how experiential quality generates customer loyalty (CL) by testing the mediation role of both customer trust (CT) and customer engagement (CE).

Design/methodology/approach

Two sequential smaller studies were conducted to answer the proposed research objectives. The first study was an exploratory study involving two series of focus group discussions and a survey with a self-administered questionnaire. The second study was an explanatory study. Similar to the first study, a self-administered questionnaire was employed to collect the data. A total of 410 participants participated in this study for both the first and second study. Exploratory factor analysis was used to analyse the data in the first study, while Partial Least Squares was employed to test the relationship amongst variables in the second study.

Findings

This study found that Bank 4.0 experiential quality is a multidimensional construct with access reliability (AR), digital interaction (DI) and security (SC) as the primary dimensions. In addition, this study suggested that Bank 4.0 experiential quality is proven to indirectly affect CL through a serial mediation process. In the serial mediation process, this study found that CT and CE are robust mediator variables.

Originality/value

This study revealed that Bank 4.0 experiential quality is a multidimensional construct with three primary dimensions: AR, DI and SC. This finding proves that the bank 4.0 experiential quality dimension is different from the conventional banking experiential quality. In addition, this study showed the process of how Bank 4.0 experiential quality is transformed into CL. In addition, this current research discovered that CE and CT serially mediated the impact of bank 4.0 experiential quality on CL that has not been explored by the previous research in the banking industry.

Abstract

Purpose

B&B stays have enjoyed popularity in China over recent decades. This study examines the impacts of the three dimensions of tourist experiential quality on the perceived functional and emotional value and customer satisfaction with B&B stays in Southwestern China.

Design/methodology/approach

Questionnaires were collected from 433 Chinese visitors in Southwestern China. Partial least squares–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to test the significance of the relationship that exists among experiential quality, perceived value and tourist satisfaction.

Findings

The research results proved that experiential quality predicts customer satisfaction with B&B stays as mediated by perceived functional and emotional values. The specific experiential quality - fun – has the strongest effect on both perceived functional value and emotional value between the three dimensions of experiential quality.

Research limitations/implications

Since fun is viewed as the most significant element, B&B providers should consider creating a more joyful encounter for tourists. They should enrich the activities and improve service to strengthen the experiential quality perceived by the tourists. Both relational experiences and authentic local experiences should be incorporated into the activities and services provided.

Originality/value

This is likely to be the first study to investigate the influence of three dimensions of experiential quality on perceived functional and emotional value and satisfaction from the B&B industry in China. The findings provide value through actionable insights into experiential qualities, functional and emotional values that drive tourist satisfaction.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to use a multi-level model as a framework to examine the relationships among experiential quality, green emotional attachment, green image, green switching experience, green experiential satisfaction and green experiential loyalty for the green restaurant industry.

Design/methodology/approach

The data used in this study were based on a sample of 515 customers at a green restaurant in Taipei City of Taiwan. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling and hierarchical regression analysis.

Findings

The findings identify that interaction quality, peer-to-peer quality, physical environment quality, outcome quality, enjoyment quality and management quality influence experiential quality, which in turn results in green emotional attachment and green image respectively. Experiential quality, green image and green switching experience influence green experiential satisfaction, which in turn results in green emotional attachment. Green loyalty is influenced by green emotional attachment, green image, green experiential satisfaction and green switching experience. Green image moderates the relationships between experiential quality, physical environment quality and outcome quality.

Practical implications

To increase experiential quality and green emotional attachment, enhance green image, green experiential satisfaction and green loyalty and decrease green switching experience, the study findings will help green restaurant management develop and implement market-orientated service strategies.

Originality/value

This is the first study to investigate the effects of experiential quality, green emotional attachment, green image, green switching experience and green experiential satisfaction on green experiential loyalty in a green restaurant setting.

Abstract

Respite care or ‘short breaks’ are currently heavily promoted as services to support older people and their carers. However, uptake of such services can be limited and there is a need to design models which are more flexible and responsive, and also reflect the ethos of personcentred care, which is currently one of the main drivers of health and social care policy in the UK. This paper describes the rationale for, and the philosophy behind, a new service for people with dementia and their carers recently established in Sheffield which provides respite care in the person's own home. The importance of user and carer involvement is highlighted and the need for new approaches to evaluation stressed.
