Satisfaction is "a psychological state resulting
from a process of emotional and cognitive
evaluation (Oliver, 1981). Oliver (1980)
showed that satisfaction has an indirect effect
on the intentions of customers around the
attitude after the purchase. Bearden and Teel
(1983) also found a similar result in services.
Fornell and al. (1996) show that cumulative
satisfaction is an important antecedent of
loyalty shown by the intention of repurchases
and tolerance of a price increase. Cronin and
Taylor (1992), in turn, showed that satisfaction
has a significant effect on purchase intentions.
Taylor and Baker (1994) showed that the
perceived quality and satisfaction have a joint
influence on purchase intentions. Their results
imply that the intention is strongly expressed
when the service is excellent and the customer
is satisfied. Finally, improving the satisfaction
can decrease the sensitivity of customers
regarding the price increase by the company or
