Kurzfassung/Abstract
This paper examines the curve progression of the relationship between compensation level and post-complaint satisfaction. Drawing on the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility vs. Prospect Theory, we hypothesize two competing nonlinear curve progressions. Hypotheses are tested through curve estimation procedure based on a 2 by 11 mixed factorial design crossing eleven compensation levels (0% – 200%) and two industries (services vs. consumer goods). For services, the curve appears to be concave: Satisfaction increases to a disproportionally small extent with increasing compensation. For goods, the curve appears to be S-shaped: The highest incremental effect of compensation is reached at about 80% compensation, and the effect becomes negative for compensation greater than 160%. Implications for complaint management theory and practice are discussed.
