Abstract: | In this study, a model is developed and tested to examine the effects of situational and individual differences on consumers' propensity to complain in a restaurant setting. Using a structural equation modeling analysis, it is found that convenience of complaining and expectation of resultant benefits, consumers' attitude toward complaining, consumer involvement with a dining experience, and perceived self-importance, are factors associated with the likelihood of engaging in complaining behaviour. |
