Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 工業工程與管理研究所 === 92 === Relationship marketing is an essential issue for marketing no matter in terms of theory or practice. Various mediating-variable approaches have been adapted by scholars in light of relationship marketing. In 1994, Morgan & Hunt proposed a well-known model called “Key Mediating Variable Model, KMV.” They selected relationship commitment and trust as the mediating variables. However, others selected trust or customer satisfaction as the mediating variables. Therefore, an issue whether customer satisfaction could be combined with the mediating variables of relationship commitment and trust to conduct relationship marketing KMV model becomes an worthy topic to be studied. The thesis tries to adapt the mediating variables, such as customer satisfaction, relationship commitment and trust in order to establish a relationship marketing model from Antecedents ─ Mediating ─ Consequences.
