Effects of Customer-based Service Attribute and customer Satisfaction on Trust: Mediating Effects of Customer Satisfaction

Islamic banks have faced many challenges either from rivals or customers who look for better products and services. This study examined both the direct and mediating effects of selected variables influencing Islamic banks’ customer loyalty. The direct links were satisfaction, attitude towards Islamic banks, customer trust, and religious obligation to customer loyalty. On the other hand, the indirect links were through the mediators’ trust and attitude. A sample of 416 working Muslims in the UAE was collected and analysed. We used PLS-SEM techniques and the SmartPLS 3.0 software package to investigate customers’ loyalty towards Islamic banks. It was found that all the direct links were positive and significant, and were mediating relationships. This result implied that the respondent’s attitude toward Islamic banks and customer trust plays a significant role in understanding the relationship between customer satisfaction, religious obligation, and customer loyalty. In other words, both customer satisfaction and religious obligation indirectly created customer loyalty through the mediators. This study is one of the few studies that incorporate religious obligation as one of the determinants of customer loyalty.

Express Delivery

In order to further meet the diversified needs of customers and enhance market competitiveness, it is necessary for express delivery enterprises to carry out service innovation. From the perspective of customer demand, we propose a framework for mining service innovation opportunities. This framework uses text mining to analyze user generated content and tries to provide a scientific service innovation scheme for express enterprises. Firstly, we crawl online reviews of express companies and use LDA model to identify service attributes. Secondly, customer satisfaction is calculated by sentiment analysis, and simultaneously, the importance of each service attribute is calculated. Finally, we carry out an opportunity algorithm with the results of text mining to quantify the innovation opportunities of service attributes. The results show that the framework can effectively identify service innovation opportunities from the perspective of customer demand. This study provides a new way to explore the direction of service innovation from the perspective of customer demand.
