Research timeline From May 9, 2011 to August 1, 2011 Literature of review Service quality According to Berry et al. (1988), service quality has become a significant differentiator and the most powerful competitive weapon which all the service organizations want to possess. Definitions of service quality hold that this is the result of an evaluation process where customers compare their expectations about a service with their perception of the service to be received (Lewis & Booms, 1983; Lehtinen & Lehtinen, 1982; Gro? roos, 1984; Parasuraman et al. , 1985, 1988, 1994).
They also added that service quality can be split into technical quality which means ‘what is done’ and functional quality which means ‘how it is done’. Lehtinen and Lehtinen (1982) gave a three-dimensional view of service quality consisting ‘interaction’, ‘physical’, and ‘corporate’ quality. Numerous researches have been delineated service quality as forms of attitude – a long run overall evaluation, and the two constructs (service quality and attitude) are viewed as similar (Parasuraman et al. 1988; Bitner, Booms, & Tetreault, 1990; Bolton and Drew, 1991; Cronin & Taylor, 1992; Bitner & Hubert, 1994).

Allport (1935) defined attitude as “a learned predisposition to respond to an object in a consistently favorable or an unfavorable way. ” As perceived service quality portrays a general overall appraisal of service, i. e. a global value judgment on the superiority of overall satisfaction with the service, it is viewed as similar to attitude (Sureshchandar et al. , 2002).
Parasuraman et al. (1988) have developed a service quality measure, SERVQUAL which reasonable of the overall service quality dimensions.
The researchers developed ten general dimensions named- tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, competence, courtesy, credibility, security, access, communications, and understanding. SERVQUAL was revised later by Parasuraman et al. (1991) based on the result of an empirical study on five service companies. They noticed that some of the ten dimensions were correlated. They refined it and finalized the instrument composed of five dimensions include reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangibles. In this present study these dimensions will be used to measure the service quality. Dimensions of service quality
