About the Lab
Professor Sunmee Choi's research lab specializes in revenue management, consumer fairness perceptions, and multichannel pricing strategies within the hospitality and service industries. The lab investigates how information transparency, pricing transparency, and cultural differences influence consumer perceptions of fairness and satisfaction. It also explores the role of government capability, policy knowledge, and public participation in shaping policy satisfaction, particularly in the context of public administration and governance. The lab employs experimental designs, conjoint analysis, and game-theoretic modeling to understand strategic decision-making in competitive and cross-cultural environments.

15Even with the variety of distribution channels available, rate and length of stay remain the key factors in revenue management.
Despite the prospective benefits of a revenue management (RM) program, some hotel managers remain concerned that customers perceive RM as being unfair. Studies have shown that offering customers information on a hotel’s pricing practices can enhance their perceptions of fairness. To determine how much and what type of information hotels should provide in this context, researchers administered a scenario-based survey to 120 travelers. The study found that giving would-be guests relatively complet
Abstract This study examines the effects of contrasting multichannel pricing strategies (uniform versus differential pricing) on consumers' fairness perceptions, with a focus on the moderating roles of the relative positioning of prices in the marketplace (price frame) and consumers' perceptions of the differential multichannel pricing practice as a norm in the given industry (norm perception). The results of a scenario-based survey method with 2 (uniform versus differential multichannel pricing
An exploration of cross-cultural differences in customers’ fairness perceptions of hotel room pricing found that increasing the level of information improved fairness perceptions for respondents in both the United States and Korea. Overall, U.S. consumers seem to perceive variable pricing practices as more fair than do their Korean counterparts. The extent of pricing information offered appears to have a diverse influence across the two culture groups. While only full information had a positive
Conjoint analysis has become a major tool in the process of designing and concept testing consumer packaged goods and industrial products. In most applications, however, product concepts are tested against existing sets of competing brands without considering potential competitive reactions. Although many researchers have recognized the need for models to incorporate competitive reactions, few methodological developments have been published thus far. Instead of what-if analysis, which depends he
본 연구는 정부역량이 정책만족에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 국민의 정책지식 수준이 이 관계에서 어떤 역할을 하는지 실증적으로 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 정부의 적극적인 정책홍보와 기술의 발전, SNS의 활성화에 따라 국민의 정책지식 수준이 높아지면서 기존에 논의되었던 정책만족에 영향을 미치는 정책 자체의 요인과 정부의 역량 외에 국민의 정책지식 수준이 양자 간의 관계를 조절할 수 있다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 예산효율성, 정책효과성, 공무원의 전문성 및 정책일관성 등 정부의 관리역량이 높을수록 정책만족도가 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 시민참여, 대응성, 불편부당성 등의 정치역량 역시 정책만족에 통계적으로 유의하게 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 공직윤리는 다른 독립변수에 비해 영향력은 작지만 통계적으로 유의하게 정책만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있었으며 주요 정책별로 미치는 영향이 다른 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 조절효과 분석 결과, 정책지식은 관리역량이 정책만족에 미치
Although proprietary hotel revenue management systems may take group business into account, substantial research is not available on revenue management for groups. A series of formulas presented here shows how to calculate the expected contribution of a prospective group’s offer. In particular, the decision on whether to accept a group’s offer depends on the opportunity cost of transient business lost when the group’s rooms are blocked. In the event that the group’s offer falls short of covering
본 연구는 정부역량과 사법역량, 정치역량이 국민 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 미래사회 국가역량의 변화방향과 정책적 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다. 이에 70여개 국가의 10여년 간의 데이터를 활용하여 국가 전체, 소득수준별, 정치성향별로 그룹을 나누어 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 정부규모는 삶의 만족도에 유의하게 음의 영향을 미치는 반면, 정부효과성은 삶의 만족도에 유의하게 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 정부의 양적 측면보다 정부의 질이 국민 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향이 중요하다고 볼 수 있으며 최근, 정부에 대한 복지수요가 증가하고 있는 상황에서 오히려 이러한 상황으로 인해 정부지출이 늘어나는 것에 대한 우려를 반증하는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 둘째, 법치주의는 삶의 만족도에 유의하게 부의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 법의 절차나 안정성보다 법의 내용적 측면이 국민 삶에 어떠한 영향을 미치고 있는지가 중요하다고 볼 수 있다. 셋째, 민주주의는 삶의
The important role of customer contact employees in creating superior customer service quality has been well demonstrated. Accordingly, extensive research has been conducted to identify antecedents of their commitment to customer service. The effect of internal service quality has been proposed as one such factor, but has not been empirically tested. We intend to fill this gap in this study. Specifically, we examine the exclusive role of perceived internal service quality in forming employee com
