Article - Classifying and measuring the service quality of AI Chatbot in frontline service Vol: 145 (Issue): - Hal: 552–568
AI chatbots have been widely applied in the frontline to serve customers. Yet, the existing dimensions
and scales of service quality can hardly fit the new AI environment. To address this gap, we define the
dimensions of AI chatbot service quality (AICSQ) and develop the associated scales with a mixed-
method approach. In the qualitative analysis, with the coding of the interviews from 55 global
organizations in 17 countries and 47 customers, we develop new multi-level dimensions of AICSQ,
including seven second-order and 18 first-order constructs. Then we follow a 10-step scale
development method to establish the valid scales. The nomological test result shows that AICSQ
positively influences customers’ satisfaction with, perceived value of, and intention of continuous use
of AI chatbots. The innovative dimensions and scales of AI chatbot service quality provide conceptual
classification and measurement instruments for the future study of chatbot service in the frontline.
