Consumer performance and quality in services

Author:

Bateson John

Abstract

This article argues for the pivotal role of consumer performance in services – the quality of the ability of the consumer to fulfil their production role. It argues that script theory is ideally suited to understanding performance. It highlights a study which confirms that it is possible to measure the quality of scripts, shows their antecedents and relates script quality directly to performance and consumer satisfaction.
