Their study found that dental patients' assessments of overall service quality were strongly influenced by assessments of provider performance. Furthermore, an examination into the causal order between perceptions of overall service quality and patient satisfaction reveals such strong reciprocal influences that it's impossible to conclude that one empirically precedes the other. Finally, the authors found that purchase intentions are influenced by both patient satisfaction and patient assessments of overall service quality.10aMarketing1 aMcAlexander, Jim1 aKaldenburg, Dennis1 aKoenig, Hal u/biblio/service-quality-measurement-0
