dc.description.abstractThis research thesis investigates the effects of hospitality behavior of bank personnel on customer satisfaction in the case of banks operating in Turkey. The moderating role of servicescape on the effects of bank hospitality on customer satisfaction is also investigated. A total of 150 bank customers from different cities of Turkey were surveyed through a semi-structured questionnaire instrument with this respect. Results reveal that Turkish citizens are moderately satisfied with the hospitality behaviour of bank personnel and servicescape environment in the banks of Turkey. Regression analyses confirm the hypothesis that bank hospitality exerts positively have significant effect on customer satisfaction; however, the hypothesis “servicescape in the banks moderates interaction between bank hospitality and customer satisfaction” cannot be confirmed. Therefore, this study suggests that banks in Turkey need to rely on the training programs to improve their hospitality behaviour at further levels and invest more on servicescape in their banks.

dc.description.abstractÖZ; Bu araştırma tezi Türkiye'de faaliyet gösteren bankalardaki müşteri memnuniyetinde banka personelinin misafirperver tutumunun etkilerini incelemektedir. Müşteri memnuniyetinde banka misafirperverliğinin etkisindeki hizmet ortamının ılımlı rolü de incelenmiştir.Bu bağlamda Türkiye'nin farklı şehirlerinden toplam 150 banka müşterisi yarı yapılı anket vasıtasıyla araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir.Sonuçlar açıklamaktadır ki, Türkiye'deki banka müşterileri banka çalışanlarının misafirperver tutumundan ve hizmet ortamı çerçevesindeki banka ortamından orta derecede memnun olmaktadır. Regresyon analizi de banka misafirperverliğinin müşteri memnuniyetine ciddi bir pozitif etki yaratmaktadır, ancak "hizmet ortamının banka misafirperverliği ve müşteri memnuniyeti arasındaki ilişkiyi hafiflettiği" hipotezini doğrulamaktadır. Bu yüzden Türkiye'deki bankalar müşteri memnuniyetini yukarı seviyelere çıkaracak eğitimlere eğilmeli ve bankalarındaki hizmet ortamı anlayışına daha çok yatırım yapmalıdırlar.
