SERVQUAL metoduna pazarlama yaklaşımı–otomotiv satış sonrasında yapısal eşitlik modeline dayalı servis kalitesi ölçümü

The study proposed new service quality items based on Servqual 5-dimensional construct and also new quality dimension named marketing. Within this proposal three hypotheses are constructed as follows: (1) marketing as a service quality dimension has a significant effect on customer satisfaction; (2) customer satisfaction has an effect on customer loyalty; (3) customer satisfaction has an effect on brand image. While evaluating path relationships between service quality dimensions and customer behaviors in the model, the structural equation modelling (SEM) was performed using the "Smart-PLS 3" software for testing hypothesis and path analysis of the study (i.e., based on service quality dimensions and customer behaviors). In order to gather data for evaluating path model, the survey method is used. The 100 customers who has a past experience with the brand rated 27 questions on 7-point Likert scales. Findings show that marketing as a service quality dimension affect customer satisfaction which in turn affects customer loyalty and brand image.
