Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to investigate how emotions affect customer satisfaction, service quality and positive word-of-mouth intentions. The data for the study was collected from undergraduate students, in the form of a questionnaire. Factor analysis indicates that emotions indeed influence the before mentioned variables and that there are two emotion dimensions that have a direct effect on all of the dependent variables. However, different emotion dimensions were found to affect satisfaction and positive word-of-mouth intentions at different stages of the service encounter. |
