Abstract

Kano's approach, besides providing a theoretical model for the behavior of consumer satisfaction, makes it possible to convert theory into practice by creating instruments (questionnaires) designed to study consumer preferences and to find out how a given service feature or attribute will behave in terms of consumer satisfaction. In the second part of this article (part 1 is also in this issue), we describe the technical aspects of developing and using this type of questionnaire and the implications of applying Kano's model.
