This study was to explore and recognize servicescape(physical surroundings) components in hotel restaurant from employee's perspectives divided into work of job satisfaction and environmental aspects. As a result of factor analysis on servicesacpe and employee's psychological responses, 6 factors of servicescape and 2 factors of employee's psychological responses were extracted and titled ambient factors, spacial layout/functionality, aesthetics, safety/cleanliness, convenience; emotional response, cognitive response, respectively. Then it also investigated the influence of servicescape factors on job satisfaction mediating employee's psychological responses. Finally it was intended to find out whether and what influence employee's psychological responses (emotional response, cognitive response) had on organizational commitment.
For these purposes this study was proceeded with theoretical review and empirical analysis concurrently. Data of this study were collected a survey, based on questionaire, on employees worked in hotel restaurant. A statistic software, SPSS Win 12.0 was operated to perform frequency, reliability test, factor analysis, correlation, and regression analysis to verify research hypotheses.
As a result of the analysis, generally, all of 24 hypotheses were accepted. Specific results were as follows. The first, hypothesis 1-3 were analysed that servicescape had significant effects on emotional response, cognitive response and job satisfaction. The second, hypothesis 4-5 and 7-8 were revealed that emotional response and cognitive response had significant influence on job satisfaction and organizational commitment. The third, hypothesis 6 was testified that employee's emotional response and cognitive response had significant correlates. The fourth, hypothesis 9 was shown that job satisfaction had statistically significant influence on organizational commitment.
In conclusion, practically it is thought for these results to be meaningful in that considering influential relationships between effective management of servicescape and employee's psychological responses in hotel human resource management become importantly tangible cues on and enable to supply job satisfaction and organizational commitment to the hotel managements who consider internal marketing. Academically it also is expected that these findings will empirically examine exploring model of Bitner and then suggest theoretical model on servicescape, therefore these will contribute to construct further theoretical foundations.
