Abstract

This study extends price-perceived quality research into the context of services. Quality risk, price, and awareness were manipulated in a 3 × 2 × 2 factorial design. The results of the experiment indicate that price and awareness interact in the formation of perceived service quality evaluations. In high awareness conditions, price is used as a cue to quality, but the price-quality relationship does not hold in low awareness situations.
