The effect of mood states on the dyadic service encounter.
In: 2nd Asia Pacific Conference of the Association for Consumer Research, 12-13 Jul 1996, Perth, Australia.
Abstract
Service encounters in people based services are primarily dyadic in nature. This paper examines the influence that affect, particularly moods states have on the service encounter. The relevance of mood states prior to, during and subsequent to the service encounter are discussed. Findings from two exploratory studies highlights the need to investigate the effect of mood states on the dyadic interaction of the service encounter. It is further proposed that the level of the interdependency between the customer and service provider could influence the intensity of mood states in the encounter. Future research will also investigate the effect of mood states on the service outcome and evaluation.
