1. INTRODUCTION
Service quality and customer satisfaction are some of the greatest discussed subjects in
advertising writing of a decade ago (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, & Nor, 2019). The incredible
enthusiasm for customer satisfaction can be ascribed to its significance in accomplishing
maintainable upper hands and money related results, (Kassim and Abdullah, 2010). Customer
satisfaction alludes to the inspirational mentalities of clients toward an organization or service

that brings about continued repurchasing practices and in a lower Customer satisfaction to the
cost and the contributions of contenders. Loyal clients are more beneficial than other ones
since they go through additional with the firm and have lower overhauling costs (Juhana, et
al, 2015). Consequently, overseeing and improving client loyalty turns into a key basis for
firms. The service gains extraordinary significance in improving customer satisfaction
through the successful administration of customer satisfaction and service quality. The
passionate connection towards a service makes emotional responsibility that urges buyers to
continually depend on a particular service's contribution repurchase similar services, spread
great words, and not visit contender's stores (Han, et al. 2018). These practices at the last
outcome in customer satisfaction and the enthusiasm for customer satisfaction have brought
about countless commitments on this theme.
The explanation is that customer satisfaction is a complex and complicated idea including
vibrant communications and trades. It is a multidimensional develop and a few troubles arise
in distinguishing its measurements and operationalize them (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor,
& Streimikieneb, 2019. As a matter of first importance, customer loyalty characterized as a
blend of attitudinal and social measurements that make challenges in breaking down it, (Hu,
et al, 2009). Second, a lot of examination has been given to researching its forerunners and
results because satisfaction is identified with other complex factors like purchaser association,
trust, fulfillment, responsibility, furthermore, commitment. Besides, in a years ago, the
advancement of buyers and the improvement of online networking have significantly changed
the customers' practices and the method that they communicate with different customers and
with the company itself, (Kumar, et al, 2009). For researchers, consequently, it is difficult to
distinguish the bearings to which address their endeavors planned for adding to the headway
of the exploration of this theme. This paper intends to give an outline of the exploration
discoveries and patterns by planning the examination field in bunches ready to control the
scientist to the utmost persuasive works, results, and matters that need more bits of
knowledge. This paper gives a bibliometric examination and a planning investigation of the
takes a shot at service quality and customer satisfaction, (McKecnie, et al, 2011).
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1. Service Quality Review Research
Service quality relies upon the capacity of firms to manufacture a solid service character
through corporate correspondence systems, because, as featured by the more positive the
service personality is seen by purchasers, the more good the demeanor shoppers have towards
the service technique, (Hapsari, et al. 2017). A year ago, concerning web-based social
networking, the idea of (on the web) service network rose as the "specific, non-geologically
bound network, because of an organized arrangement of social connections among admirers
of a service". The duty to a service network describes clients with a solid service recognizable
proof, self-ID, and fulfillment with the service, who buy a similar service reliably, (Oh and
Kim, 2017). Service quality is a lot of impression of a customer that distinguishes the
portrayal of the service in his/her brain. A few investigations show that service quality
influences service dependability through service quality, (McKecnie, et al, 2011). The
perceived service quality can be comprehended as the correlation between the company's
presentation and client's desires when the disconfirmation is negative, disappointment is
made, when it is sure, consumer satisfaction is created, in this way expanding customer
loyalty (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor, & Streimikiene, 2019).. The idea of service quality is
firmly identified with that of saw esteem, which is characterized as the shopper's general
assessment of the advantages that are accomplished from an item or administration
Harith Yas, Ahmad Jusoh, Alhamzah F. Abbas, Abbas Mardani and Khalil Md Nor
http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 461 editor@iaeme.com
consequently of the apparent expense, as far as money related and non-fiscal cost,
(Sureshchandar, et al, 2002).
2.2. Customer Satisfaction Review Research
Customer satisfaction refers to the reaction of customers towards the state of satisfaction or
how they judge their level of satisfaction for the services they receive (Khudhair, Jusoh,
Mardani, Nor, & Streimikiene, 2019). Customer satisfaction is usually based on the
experience of the customer based on the quality of a particular service they receive. Customer
satisfaction and customer loyalty are actually in line with and determined by the service
quality, which an organization provides to its customers, (Al-Tit, 2015). The exploration of
customer satisfaction has delivered fascinating outcomes concerning terms of explanation of
its measurements, (Sureshchandar, et al, 2002). As attitudinal measurements, researchers
have recognized the inclusion and connection to a firm or service and the value resilience,
while conduct measurements, the repurchasing conduct, positive proposals, and verbal.
Nonetheless, it rises that more examinations are required for estimating the consolidated
impacts of the two-class of measurements on dedication. Consumer satisfaction, duty, trust,
and commitment distinguished as the main factors that identify with faithfulness, (Oh and
Kim, 2017). Connections between these factors researched through the meaning of
observational models and quantitative examinations, which show positive relationships
between them. The entirety of the factors applies constructive outcomes on client devotion,
and simultaneously, steadfastness influences all of them. These outcomes propose conquering
the qualification between faithfulness forerunners and results for a thought of the various
factors in a positive hover in which the improvement of one variable triggers a chain response
of upgrades, (Shanka, 2012).
2.3. Service Quality and Customer Satisfaction Review Research
According to Hapsari, et al (2017), a positive relationship between service quality and
customer satisfaction results in maximization of profits that an organization makes. Service
quality is usually derived from the satisfaction of a company’s employees, which has a direct
effect on the quality of service they offer to the customers and hence customer satisfaction.
Taylor and Baker (1994), conducted a study titled “An assessment of the relationship between
service quality and customer satisfaction in the formation of consumer’s purchase intentions”.
According to the research by Taylor and Baker (1994), service quality and customer
satisfaction are key influencing factors to the creation of consumers’ intentions to make
purchases. However, the literature suggests that the specific nature of the relationship between
service quality and customer satisfaction has a direct and positive effect on customer loyalty
(Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor, & Streimikiene, 2019).
2.4. Bibliometric Analysis
According to (Abbas et al., 2020), he referred to bibliometrics as the application of
mathematical and statistical methods to books and other means of communication. It uses
quantitative analysis of empirical data in published literature to study the patterns of
publication within a field. This work depends on a bibliometric investigation and planning
investigation of the commitments about service quality and customer satisfaction. These data
collection since it gives a huge favorable position being multidisciplinary and containing
sociologies writing. Initial, a bibliometric investigation directed to recognize the complete
distributions by year, the number of times referred to by year, the most referred to creators,
and beneficial nations. The best ten of the most cited distributions made. In this way, the
logical planning study completed utilizing the software Scopus, which permits the
development of logical guides just as a superior perception of the advancement inside a

http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 462 editor@iaeme.com
logical region (Chang, et al. 2009). Scopus gives various modules that help the investigator
lead a science planning work process: a segment that is devoted to the administration of the
information base and its elements, a module answerable for leading the science planning
investigation and a module to picture the created outcomes and guides, (Kumar et al., 2009).
To play out the investigation, the accompanying setup in Scopus built up: discussion as the
unit of examination, co-event investigation as the apparatus to construct the systems, equality
record as the comparability extent to standardize the systems, Jaccard file as the development
measure (Talib et al., 2011). The examination gives an assessment guide to the subject
"customer loyalty and service quality" with the best research and its importance in the
distributions investigated. The importance of the study built up based on three events: records
check, H-Index, and whole references. For each applicable expression of the investigation, a
group of the related publication made, graphically indicating the importance of each
publication in the bunch and the connections between everyone, (Juhana, et al, 2015).

3.3. Leading Countries, Organizations and International Institutions
Figure 3 below shows the most successful countries leading to growth of the research activity
of services quality and customer loyalty. United States in collaboration with China
contributed about 60% of the global publications, which suggests that these two countries
play a key role in advancement of service quality and customer satisfaction. Research found
United States to be the leading country with 265 publications in a total of 83 journals covering
39% of the world’s total publications. China followed at the second position as the second
most productive half of China’s total publication. Huazhong University of Science and
Technology (TPI) is a bit lower than that of Hua University found in Taiwan which implicates
that direct comparison could be bias among the fifteen countries with academic institutions.
The distribution by area table 2 in accordance with VOSviewer shows that the closer the two
countries are the stronger and greater their connection becomes.

4. DISCUSSION
Service quality assumes a major job in the improvement of client dependability. Occasionally,
purchasers are not faithful to the organization when all is accomplished, yet rather to a
particular service. Service qualities imply that one-sided (non-irregular) social reaction (buy),
communicated after some time by some dynamic unit as for at least one elective service out of
a lot of services and is a component of mental procedures". A few works show that consumer
loyalty improves customer satisfaction. As indicated by Hu et al (2009), the connection
between fulfillment and customer satisfaction is intervened by the relationship duty.
Submitted clients feel a passionate connection towards service quality and they have practices
like repurchasing, positive proposals, and lack of engagement towards contenders'
contributions these measurements identified with the conduct of customer satisfaction
(Palmer, 2010). The apparent worth, notwithstanding increment consumer loyalty, supports
the customers’ repurchases (Hu et al., 2009), advances re-support aims, and disheartens
exchanging practices subsequently improving client steadfastness, (Hu et al., 2009).
Consequently, from this investigation, it develops that additionally because of service the
board there are numerous factors and measurements identified with the service that can
influence client dedication. The investigation of these factors and their connections is crucial
for seeing how to deal with the service to expand customer satisfaction.
The entirety of the mental procedures contains intellectual and passionate perspectives and
both upgrade the conduct faithfulness. Subsequently, organizations must consider the

enthusiastic substance in the connections. Service the executives turn out to be increasingly
more significant for satisfaction upgrades. Indeed, new ideas presented are similar to mark
dedication, service commitment, service value, and service networks. The service perceived
as the chief factor that can make duty and connect with clients, (Yap and Kew, 2007).
Specific consideration dedicated to the online service networks as situations where new types
of customers’ correspondence rise, taking into account new types of service distinguishing
proof and service encounters that improve the service esteem and the purchasers' connection
to the service. Service people group hence becomes the most significant device for CRM
procedures. The support of organizations in service networks permit them to obtain the
essential data, share and underline substance, focus on the shoppers, and increment the service
value. As indicated by the aftereffects of Hapsari et al (2017), organizations should bolster
service network giving assets, for example, assets, staff, and spot, developing a firm service
network and giving material help. Additionally care and compensations to the service
network. Besides, organizations ought to propose a few exercises for the individuals from the
network as per the style, character, feeling, and estimations of the service. Mostly, all web-
based life shows spots where the associations with clients overseen, as they give more
chances of communication and data sharing permitting the client commitment and initiating
esteem co-creation ways with them. Through internet based life, firms can encourage the
social associations of clients for marking co-creation, information sharing, and client
strengthening, (Jahanshahi et al., 2011).
According to the previous literature are showing the importance and relationship between
service quality and customer satisfaction. We make this bibliometric paper to know the major
authors and the key words related to service quality and customer satisfaction. Also explore
the countries and institutions that work in the field of service quality and customer
satisfaction.
5. CONCLUSION
From the analysis presented, there is a progress in service quality and customer satisfaction
research based on 1,346 Scopus database publications. Since the last five years, publication
growth has been strong, and expected to increase further. We have discovered a huge number
of publications and strong international collaborations in countries. The institutions may offer
motivations to researchers from other countries such as United Kingdom and Australia to
expand their research collaborations. Different fields well explored such as TQM and social
sciences addressed as main issues. We also discussed several newly researched areas with
service quality and customer satisfaction, such as service quality and brand image
6. LIMITATIONS/ IMPLICATIONS OF THE STUDY
Some of the limitations of the study are that the results of the search may not be able to cover
all studies related to service quality and customer satisfaction. Proposals show that future
studies performance of several databases, such as Scopus and the Web of Science may not be
accurate. For instance, the Web of Science search results automatically show the most popular
articles in the field through a feature called ' hot paper’ which shows only main papers
recognized as soon as published, represented by a fast and large number of quotes.
Bibliometric analysis using multiple data sources will be useful for a more comprehensive
study. The database is again limited to only ten journals in the service quality and customer
satisfaction field that imposes that the trends and patterns produced in the study may not
apply between 2009 and 2019. More scientific publications should be included in future
research for better generalizability. New issues and trends related to this research are

identified as an important way of replicating quantitative studies in service quality and
customer satisfaction given an emerging research area.

INTRODUCTION Service quality and customer satisfaction are some of the greatest discussed subjects in advertising writing of a decade ago (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, & Nor, 2019). The incredible enthusiasm for customer satisfaction can be ascribed to its significance in accomplishing maintainable upper hands and money related results, (Kassim and Abdullah, 2010).

A Review and Bibliometric Analysis of Service Quality and Customer Satisfaction by using Scopus Database http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 460 editor@iaeme.com that brings about continued repurchasing practices and in a lower Customer satisfaction to the cost and the contributions of contenders. Loyal clients are more beneficial than other ones since they go through additional with the firm and have lower overhauling costs (Juhana, et al, 2015). Consequently, overseeing and improving client loyalty turns into a key basis for firms. The service gains extraordinary significance in improving customer satisfaction through the successful administration of customer satisfaction and service quality. The passionate connection towards a service makes emotional responsibility that urges buyers to continually depend on a particular service's contribution repurchase similar services, spread great words, and not visit contender's stores (Han, et al. 2018). These practices at the last outcome in customer satisfaction and the enthusiasm for customer satisfaction have brought about countless commitments on this theme. The explanation is that customer satisfaction is a complex and complicated idea including vibrant communications and trades. It is a multidimensional develop and a few troubles arise in distinguishing its measurements and operationalize them (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor, & Streimikieneb, 2019. As a matter of first importance, customer loyalty characterized as a blend of attitudinal and social measurements that make challenges in breaking down it, (Hu, et al, 2009). Second, a lot of examination has been given to researching its forerunners and results because satisfaction is identified with other complex factors like purchaser association, trust, fulfillment, responsibility, furthermore, commitment. Besides, in a years ago, the advancement of buyers and the improvement of online networking have significantly changed the customers' practices and the method that they communicate with different customers and with the company itself, (Kumar, et al, 2009). For researchers, consequently, it is difficult to distinguish the bearings to which address their endeavors planned for adding to the headway of the exploration of this theme. This paper intends to give an outline of the exploration discoveries and patterns by planning the examination field in bunches ready to control the scientist to the utmost persuasive works, results, and matters that need more bits of knowledge. This paper gives a bibliometric examination and a planning investigation of the takes a shot at service quality and customer satisfaction, (McKecnie, et al, 2011). 2. LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1. Service Quality Review Research Service quality relies upon the capacity of firms to manufacture a solid service character through corporate correspondence systems, because, as featured by the more positive the service personality is seen by purchasers, the more good the demeanor shoppers have towards the service technique, (Hapsari, et al. 2017). A year ago, concerning web-based social networking, the idea of (on the web) service network rose as the "specific, non-geologically bound network, because of an organized arrangement of social connections among admirers of a service". The duty to a service network describes clients with a solid service recognizable proof, self-ID, and fulfillment with the service, who buy a similar service reliably, (Oh and Kim, 2017). Service quality is a lot of impression of a customer that distinguishes the portrayal of the service in his/her brain. A few investigations show that service quality influences service dependability through service quality, (McKecnie, et al, 2011). The perceived service quality can be comprehended as the correlation between the company's presentation and client's desires when the disconfirmation is negative, disappointment is made, when it is sure, consumer satisfaction is created, in this way expanding customer loyalty (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor, & Streimikiene, 2019).. The idea of service quality is firmly identified with that of saw esteem, which is characterized as the shopper's general assessment of the advantages that are accomplished from an item or administration
  • 3. Harith Yas, Ahmad Jusoh, Alhamzah F. Abbas, Abbas Mardani and Khalil Md Nor http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 461 editor@iaeme.com consequently of the apparent expense, as far as money related and non-fiscal cost, (Sureshchandar, et al, 2002). 2.2. Customer Satisfaction Review Research Customer satisfaction refers to the reaction of customers towards the state of satisfaction or how they judge their level of satisfaction for the services they receive (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor, & Streimikiene, 2019). Customer satisfaction is usually based on the experience of the customer based on the quality of a particular service they receive. Customer satisfaction and customer loyalty are actually in line with and determined by the service quality, which an organization provides to its customers, (Al-Tit, 2015). The exploration of customer satisfaction has delivered fascinating outcomes concerning terms of explanation of its measurements, (Sureshchandar, et al, 2002). As attitudinal measurements, researchers have recognized the inclusion and connection to a firm or service and the value resilience, while conduct measurements, the repurchasing conduct, positive proposals, and verbal. Nonetheless, it rises that more examinations are required for estimating the consolidated impacts of the two-class of measurements on dedication. Consumer satisfaction, duty, trust, and commitment distinguished as the main factors that identify with faithfulness, (Oh and Kim, 2017). Connections between these factors researched through the meaning of observational models and quantitative examinations, which show positive relationships between them. The entirety of the factors applies constructive outcomes on client devotion, and simultaneously, steadfastness influences all of them. These outcomes propose conquering the qualification between faithfulness forerunners and results for a thought of the various factors in a positive hover in which the improvement of one variable triggers a chain response of upgrades, (Shanka, 2012). 2.3. Service Quality and Customer Satisfaction Review Research According to Hapsari, et al (2017), a positive relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction results in maximization of profits that an organization makes. Service quality is usually derived from the satisfaction of a company’s employees, which has a direct effect on the quality of service they offer to the customers and hence customer satisfaction. Taylor and Baker (1994), conducted a study titled “An assessment of the relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction in the formation of consumer’s purchase intentions”. According to the research by Taylor and Baker (1994), service quality and customer satisfaction are key influencing factors to the creation of consumers’ intentions to make purchases. However, the literature suggests that the specific nature of the relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction has a direct and positive effect on customer loyalty (Khudhair, Jusoh, Mardani, Nor, & Streimikiene, 2019). 2.4. Bibliometric Analysis According to (Abbas et al., 2020), he referred to bibliometrics as the application of mathematical and statistical methods to books and other means of communication. It uses quantitative analysis of empirical data in published literature to study the patterns of publication within a field. This work depends on a bibliometric investigation and planning investigation of the commitments about service quality and customer satisfaction. These data collection since it gives a huge favorable position being multidisciplinary and containing sociologies writing. Initial, a bibliometric investigation directed to recognize the complete distributions by year, the number of times referred to by year, the most referred to creators, and beneficial nations. The best ten of the most cited distributions made. In this way, the logical planning study completed utilizing the software Scopus, which permits the development of logical guides just as a superior perception of the advancement inside a
  • 4. A Review and Bibliometric Analysis of Service Quality and Customer Satisfaction by using Scopus Database http://www.iaeme.com/IJM/index.asp 462 editor@iaeme.com logical region (Chang, et al. 2009). Scopus gives various modules that help the investigator lead a science planning work process: a segment that is devoted to the administration of the information base and its elements, a module answerable for leading the science planning investigation and a module to picture the created outcomes and guides, (Kumar et al., 2009). To play out the investigation, the accompanying setup in Scopus built up: discussion as the unit of examination, co-event investigation as the apparatus to construct the systems, equality record as the comparability extent to standardize the systems, Jaccard file as the development measure (Talib et al., 2011). The examination gives an assessment guide to the subject "customer loyalty and service quality" with the best research and its importance in the distributions investigated. The importance of the study built up based on three events: records check, H-Index, and whole references. For each applicable expression of the investigation, a group of the related publication made, graphically indicating the importance of each publication in the bunch and the connections between everyone, (Juhana, et al, 2015). 3.

DISCUSSION Service quality assumes a major job in the improvement of client dependability. Occasionally, purchasers are not faithful to the organization when all is accomplished, yet rather to a particular service. Service qualities imply that one-sided (non-irregular) social reaction (buy), communicated after some time by some dynamic unit as for at least one elective service out of a lot of services and is a component of mental procedures". A few works show that consumer loyalty improves customer satisfaction. As indicated by Hu et al (2009), the connection between fulfillment and customer satisfaction is intervened by the relationship duty. Submitted clients feel a passionate connection towards service quality and they have practices like repurchasing, positive proposals, and lack of engagement towards contenders' contributions these measurements identified with the conduct of customer satisfaction (Palmer, 2010). The apparent worth, notwithstanding increment consumer loyalty, supports the customers’ repurchases (Hu et al., 2009), advances re-support aims, and disheartens exchanging practices subsequently improving client steadfastness, (Hu et al., 2009). Consequently, from this investigation, it develops that additionally because of service the board there are numerous factors and measurements identified with the service that can influence client dedication. The investigation of these factors and their connections is crucial for seeing how to deal with the service to expand customer satisfaction. The entirety of the mental procedures contains intellectual and passionate perspectives and both upgrade the conduct faithfulness.

Service the executives turn out to be increasingly more significant for satisfaction upgrades. Indeed, new ideas presented are similar to mark dedication, service commitment, service value, and service networks. The service perceived as the chief factor that can make duty and connect with clients, (Yap and Kew, 2007). Specific consideration dedicated to the online service networks as situations where new types of customers’ correspondence rise, taking into account new types of service distinguishing proof and service encounters that improve the service esteem and the purchasers' connection to the service. Service people group hence becomes the most significant device for CRM procedures. The support of organizations in service networks permit them to obtain the essential data, share and underline substance, focus on the shoppers, and increment the service value. As indicated by the aftereffects of Hapsari et al (2017), organizations should bolster service network giving assets, for example, assets, staff, and spot, developing a firm service network and giving material help. Additionally care and compensations to the service network. Besides, organizations ought to propose a few exercises for the individuals from the network as per the style, character, feeling, and estimations of the service. Mostly, all web- based life shows spots where the associations with clients overseen, as they give more chances of communication and data sharing permitting the client commitment and initiating esteem co-creation ways with them. Through internet based life, firms can encourage the social associations of clients for marking co-creation, information sharing, and client strengthening, (Jahanshahi et al., 2011). According to the previous literature are showing the importance and relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction. We make this bibliometric paper to know the major authors and the key words related to service quality and customer satisfaction. Also explore the countries and institutions that work in the field of service quality and customer satisfaction. 5. CONCLUSION From the analysis presented, there is a progress in service quality and customer satisfaction research based on 1,346 Scopus database publications. Since the last five years, publication growth has been strong, and expected to increase further. We have discovered a huge number of publications and strong international collaborations in countries. The institutions may offer motivations to researchers from other countries such as United Kingdom and Australia to expand their research collaborations. Different fields well explored such as TQM and social sciences addressed as main issues. We also discussed several newly researched areas with service quality and customer satisfaction, such as service quality and brand image 6. LIMITATIONS/ IMPLICATIONS OF THE STUDY Some of the limitations of the study are that the results of the search may not be able to cover all studies related to service quality and customer satisfaction. Proposals show that future studies performance of several databases, such as Scopus and the Web of Science may not be accurate. For instance, the Web of Science search results automatically show the most popular articles in the field through a feature called ' hot paper’ which shows only main papers recognized as soon as published, represented by a fast and large number of quotes. Bibliometric analysis using multiple data sources will be useful for a more comprehensive study. The database is again limited to only ten journals in the service quality and customer satisfaction field that imposes that the trends and patterns produced in the study may not apply between 2009 and 2019. More scientific publications should be included in future research for better generalizability. New issues and trends related to this research are
