health. In fa&t! many of the most serious &hroni& illnesses in the =nited States are
asso&iated with dietary defi&ien&ies. Proper a&&ess to nutritious foods is essential to
de&reasing dietary related &hroni& illness. Supermarets provide dietary health
resour&es through higher Cuality and lower &osts of nutritious foods. This study
e2amines the spatial a&&essibility of supermarets for 7$# neighborhoods within
/etropolitan Detroit with relation to &ommunity's poverty and ra&ial &omposition. The
per&entage of residents below the poverty line serves as the measure of
neighborhood poverty for the study. Supermarets are defined as either a
Super&enter su&h as Super mart or a full6line gro&ery store asso&iated with a
national or regional gro&ery &hain su&h as roger. Spatial a&&essibility is eCuivalent
to a /anhattan blo&. The study found that the distan&e to the nearest Supermaret
in&reased with in&reasing levels of neighborhood poverty. 3hile the distan&e to the

InadeCuate a&&essibility to supermarets may &ontribute to less nutritious diets and

As noted by Doran :())(;! it is imperative that we see to e2amine &ommonly

whether su&h &on&epts e2plain the same phenomena in &onsumers from different

surrounding servi&e Cuality in non6western &ountries! lie the Asian region and in
parti&ular! /alaysia.
f the nowledge gained in the servi&e Cuality literature! the wor of Parasuraman!
Meithaml and 8erry :"#77; provides an approa&h to defining and measuring servi&e
Cuality! nown as SF-NO=A. In&orporating five servi&e Cuality dimensions of
tangibles! reliability! responsiveness! assuran&e and empathy! SF-NO=A has been
well utilised within the literature. This being said however! it is important to note that
SF-NO=A has been found to possess &ertain limitations! parti&ularly when applied
a&ross different servi&e industries :eg9 8abaus and 8oller! "##(? S&hneider and
3hite! ())*;. 0or e2ample! DI%FSF-N for restaurants was developed by Stevens!
nutson and Patton :"##4;! in response to findings that SF-NO=A was inadeCuate
for the GuniCue+ restaurant environment :Dube! -enaghan and /iller! "##*;.
Prior resear&h suggests that not all servi&e Cuality elements :within tools su&h as
SF-NO=A! DI%FSF-N; are able to predi&t a &onsumer+s overall servi&e Cuality
per&eptions or :SO; :liva! liver and /a&/illan! "##(;. Therefore! it is important
to identify the importan&e of servi&e Cuality and its dimensions in determining overall
servi&e Cuality :SO;! as per&eived by &ustomers. 8y addressing this issue! firms
&an gain an understanding of the areas they should &on&entrate on when seeing toimprove their overall servi&e Cuality provisions :liva! liver and /a&/illan! "##(;.
In the &onte2t of the fast food industry! it appears liely that servi&e Cuality
dimensions from DI%FSF-N will positively effe&t overall servi&e Cuality :SO;
per&eptions by /alaysian &onsumers. Thus!
@"9 Servi&e Cuality :DI%FSF-N; will positively effe&t verall Servi&e Ouality
per&eptions :SO; for /alaysian fast food &onsumers.
,ustomer satisfa&tion has long been re&ognised as a pro&ess :liver! "#7"; and is
the differen&e between &onsumers+ per&eived and e2pe&ted performan&e of a
