The purpose of this study is to construct the service indexes and evaluation model of the combinative transfer station for intercity-bus with respect to servicescape. We also explore the impact of servicescape dimensions on satifaction and behavioral intentions. The research objectives include bus companies and passengers. This research collects data from both the bus companies and passengers in Taipei Bus Station. The questionnaire is used for collecting their perception on the transfer station servicescape. First, by applying the scale development procedure, we extract the factors for evaluating the satisfaction-degree of bus companies and passengers. Second, we discuss the users' needs on the transfer station servicescape by importance-performance analysis. Multivariate analysis shows that there are significant differences between the bus companies and passengers in their perception. Third, we use the structural equation modeling (SEM) to confirm the passengers' behavioral intentions. The result find that the model which treats the servicescape as a high-level factor has more comprehensiνe explanation of passengers' behavioral intentions. In conclusion, the research results not only offer the managers of transfer station specific guidance to evaluate their service level and improvement strategy, but also make suggestions for the relevant administration to supervise and manage the inter-city bus transfer station. |
