 Zhihai Zhang, (2000)29 in his article, recommended that governments could only play a role in

shaping the context and institutional structure surrounding companies, while governments

difficult for the country to improve product quality.

quality and satisfaction in the dentists’ office settings. Respondents from the United States,
Canada, and Japan participated in a 2x2 factorial experiment in which the authors manipulated
both high and low expectations and service performance in a series of scenarios. With partial
metric invariance, latent mean comparisons it was revealed that regardless of expectations and
at lower performance level, Japanese respondents reported lower quality perceptions and
satisfaction ratings than those of their U.S. and Canadian counterparts. Thus, there was some
evidence that Japanese consumers were more conservative in their evaluations of superior
service but were less critical (or more forgiving) of inferior service. Managerial implications and
future research directions were also discussed in this article.
