Ten kinds of expectations
Diez tipos de expectativas
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
The concept of expectations has been extensively studied for decades; this has caused a terminological proliferation, alongside semantic confusion. This paper undertakes to provide an integrated framework to facilitate the study of expectations. A number of ways to interpret expectations has been found; the authors conducted content analysis and identified four approaches: i) comparison, ii) ideal amount, iii) levels, and iv) assessment point. In addition, we tried to shed light as to the factors which influence the creation of expectations, how judgments affect the service, and what limits should be considered to define service delivery levels. All these questions seek to determine the presence of expectations throughout the purchase process.
