Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We propose a model in group service consumption that includes an effect of Perceived Other’s Satisfaction on CS. This study regards CS creation as a regulation process. We also suggest that self-construal, a cultural factor, moderates the process.
We conducted an online experiment using the scenario of a party at a restaurant for a colleague with data from the U.S. and Japan, representative of high-independent and interdependent societies, respectively. The results suggest that a focal customer in a group regulates his CS moderated by his self-construal. We clarify that the degree of the other customer’s experience drives the regulation and play a part in Separable or Inseparable Integration.
