Abstract

ABSTRACT The antecedents of customer engagement have been extensively examined in marketing and management literature since it is vital for the firm performance. Researchers have long assumed that relationship between these variables is linear. However, some asymmetric connections may be undiscovered. Drawing inspiration from the three-factor theory of customer satisfaction, this study investigates the possibility of asymmetric relationships between service quality attributes and customer engagement. The results revealed that service quality attributes can be categorized as the basic, excitement, and performance factors based on their varying impacts on customer engagement. Therefore, the findings reflected that the three-factor theory of customer satisfaction can be applied to customer engagement context. This research is a pioneering work in the customer engagement literature as it provided a new perspective to academics by showing that the three-factor theory of customer engagement can be used to gain more detailed and actionable insight to enhance customer engagement.
