CSU Gaining Customer Satisfaction & Customer Loyalty in Hotel Industry Discussion
Option #1: Critical Thinking: Quality at A1 HotelsA1 Hotels operates luxury hotels throughout the world. Recently, motivated by some incidents that appeared in the news, they have been concerned about the quality of service. The company has been giving the following survey to its clients after their stay:How would you rate the quality of your room? Select one.Good(G), Poor(P)How would you rate the quality of your food? Select one.Good(G), Poor(P)How would you rate the quality of your service? Select one.Good (G), Poor(P)Any customer who answered "Poor" to at least one of the three questions above is considered to be "dissatisfied." Traditionally, 40% of customers have been dissatisfied.A1 Hotels would like to see if the recent level of customer satisfaction has changed. Therefore, 200 survey responses were recently chosen at random for analysis. The complete data set is in the file named Hotels.Managerial ReportPrepare a report (see below) for A1 Hotels that summarizes your assessment of customer satisfaction. Be sure to include the following seven items in your report.To summarize the data, compute the proportion of all clients thatAnswered "Poor" to room quality.Answered "Poor" to food quality.Answered "Poor" to service quality.What do these three proportions tell you about customer satisfaction at A1 hotels? What graphical displays of data would you use to understand or explain the results of the survey?What is the point estimate of the proportion of all recent clients who were "dissatisfied?" Develop the 92% confidence interval for the proportion of all recent clients who were "dissatisfied." Interpret what the confidence interval tells you about the proportion of all recent clients who were "dissatisfied." What is the corresponding margin of error? How can the margin of error be decreased?Develop the 92% confidence interval for the proportion of all recent clients who answered "Poor" to room quality. Interpret what the confidence interval tells you about the proportion of all recent clients who answered "Poor" to room quality. What is the corresponding margin of error? How can the margin of error be decreased?Develop the 92% confidence interval for the proportion of all recent clients who answered "Poor" to food quality. Interpret what the confidence interval tells you about the proportion of all recent clients who answered "Poor" to food quality. What is the corresponding margin of error? How can the margin of error be decreased?Develop the 92% confidence interval for the proportion of all recent clients who answered "Poor" to service quality. Interpret what the confidence interval tells you about the proportion of all recent clients who answered "Poor" to service quality. What is the corresponding margin of error? How can the margin of error be decreased?Conduct a hypothesis test, using both the p-Value Approach and the Critical Value Approach, to determine if the proportion of all recent clients is more dissatisfied than the traditional level of dissatisfaction. Use α = 0.08 level of significance. Do not forget to include the correctly worded hypothesis and show all of the steps required to conduct the hypothesis test.What would be possible effects of a lower and then of a higher level of significance?What other hypothesis tests would you use to better understand hotel customer satisfaction?What advice would you give A1 Hotels based upon your analysis of the data?What is the magnitude of the improvement (if any)?How can this study be improved?Write a report that adheres to the formatting and APA expectations outlined on the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). As with all written assignments at CSU Global, you should have in-text citations and a reference page.Submit your Excel file in addition to your report.Requirements:Paper must be written in third person.Your paper should be four to five pages in length (counting the title page and references page) and cite and integrate at least one credible outside source. The CSU Global Library (Links to an external site.) is a great place to find resources.Include a title page, introduction, body, conclusion, and a reference page.The introduction should describe or summarize the topic or problem. It might discuss the importance of the topic or how it affects you or society as a whole, or it might discuss or describe the unique terminology associated with the topic.The body of your paper should answer the questions posed in the problem. Explain how you approached and answered the question or solved the problem, and, for each question, show all steps involved. Be sure this is in paragraph format, not numbered answers like a homework assignment.The conclusion should summarize your thoughts about what you have determined from the data and your analysis, often with a broader personal or societal perspective in mind. Nothing new should be introduced in the conclusion that was not previously discussed in the body paragraphs.Include any tables of data or calculations, calculated values, and/or graphs associated with this problem in the body of your assignment.Document formatting, citations, and style should conform to the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). A short summary containing much that you need to know about paper formatting, citations, and references is contained in the New Sample APA Paper (Links to an external site.). In addition, information in the CSU Global Library (Links to an external site.) has many helpful areas (Writing Center, Writing Tips, Template Examples/Papers Essays, and others).

In this problem, you will have to determine the appropriate t-test for the problem and then interpret the results.Assume the data in tab 11.a (Cancer mortality) represent data on cancer mortality rates for the communities in your hospital’s service area. Perform a statistical test to determine if the average cancer mortality in the rural communities is different from the average mortality in the urban communities. (Assume the mortality rates are normally distributed.) Offer an interpretation of your results. Remember to describe the mean cancer mortality rates. (4 points)Does this problem call for a one-tailed test or a two-tailed test? (1 point)Using the data in tab 11.b (Weight loss), test whether the average weight of patients attending your new weight loss clinic has changed as a result of attending the clinic. That is, is the average weight of patients after attending the clinic different from the average weight before attending? Report the average weight of these patients before and after attending the clinic and interpret the results of the statistical test(s) performed. (5 points)In this problem, you will apply the appropriate t-test to compare the mean time required to process clinical records before and after the introduction of a new method for this work. Note, assume the same records were processed before and after the introduction of the new procedure. Using data in Tab 12. (Processing time), evaluate the following:Test whether the intervention designed by a clever intern to reduce the time required to process billing forms made a difference. (That is, test whether the mean processing time after the intervention is different from the mean before the intervention.) Report your results and offer an interpretation of the statistical test(s) performed. (5 points)Would your conclusion be different if you were asked to test whether mean processing time after the intervention was less than mean processing time before the intervention? Describe how you interpret your results under these conditions. (Hint: this is a one-tailed problem.) (5 points)In this problem, you will choose the appropriate t-test for your evaluation and decide if each hypothesis requires a one- or a two-tailed test. Assume the data in Tab 13.(ER Wait times) are the time spent waiting to be seen by a physician for two groups of patients. One group were considered to have true emergencies and the other group were triaged as requiring only urgent care.Test the hypothesis that the time spent waiting does not depend on the reason for admission to the ER (true emergency v. needing urgent care). Report your results and interpret the statistical test. Does this hypothesis call for a two-tailed test or a one-tailed test? (5 points)Test the hypothesis that waiting time for patients with true emergencies was less than the waiting time for patients only needing urgent care. (Note the specific hypothesis to be tested here.) Interpret the results of the proper statistical test and justify your answer. Does this hypothesis call for a one-tailed or a two-tailed test? Please justify your answer. (5 points)
