    Study Notes

    Lecture 1

    • Design science translates requirements into design. This includes user, business, market, and engineering requirements.
    • Design effects depend on context, including activities (complex vs. simple tasks), dynamics (peak vs. off-peak hours), and consumer needs/motivation.
    • A service is comparable to a theatre, with performance (service delivery), actors (consumers, employees), backstage operations, and stage/servicescape (physical environment).
    • The physical environment, or servicescape, impacts how customers and employees act, feel, and think, as outlined by Bitner (1992).
    • A servicescape considers the importance of physical surroundings, typology (how complex/interactive is the environment), and environment-user relationships.
    • Two systems of information processing exist: System 1 (unconscious, fast, emotional) and System 2 (slow, conscious, rational).
    • The Dual-System Theory (Kahneman) posits that these two systems play different roles in design challenges. System 1 is heavily utilized in routine tasks while System 2 handles more complex tasks.

    Lecture 2

    • Baker et al. explored how service settings' physical environments influence customer behavior, emotions, and decision-making.
    • Key concepts include service environment (physical interior/exterior facilities), the S-O-R model (environmental stimuli affecting emotional states of consumers), and the servicescape model (understanding consumer responses through environmental dimensions outlined by Bitner).
    • Findings on environmental factors: Ambience (music, lighting, scent), design (color, spatial factors, materials), and social factors (other consumers). Findings show these factors influence consumer satisfaction, behavioral intentions, and decision-making.

    Lecture 3

    • Kandanpully (2023) discussed the integration of servicescapes and experiencescapes, highlighting the importance of physical, social, natural, and symbolic aspects within a servicescape.
    • Experiencescapes expand upon servicescapes by emphasizing cultural and technological aspects for a memorable experience, arguing that technology should be used as a partner rather than just a tool.
    • Kumar (2020) focused on biomorphic design, (mimicking nature in shapes, patterns, and textures).
    • Biomorphic designs offer a feasible way to bring nature into urban spaces, creating a sense of nature without needing expansive green areas.
    • Attention Restoration Theory (ART) suggests that certain environments have characteristics that stimulate attention restoration including, Being Away, Fascination, Scope, Coherence, Compatibility.

    Lecture 4

    • Place Identity Theory implies individuals have a psychological connection to a place. This connection involves emotional attachment (sense of belonging) and cognitive associations (memories/associations).
    • Biomorphism enhances both emotional and cognitive place identity.
    • Optimal Arousal Theory: Individuals are motivated to maintain a balanced level of arousal for optimal experience (pleasure). Too little arousal leads to boredom, and too much leads to overstimulation.

    Lecture 4

    • Carrel (2023) explored green nudging and construal-level theory.
    • Construal-Level Theory explores how people perceive objects and events in relation to psychological distance (special, social, temporal, hypothetical).
    • Green nudging aims to encourage eco-friendly actions using subtle behavioral interventions.
    • The article emphasizes that feasibility-focused nudges (e.g., how to achieve a goal) are more effective than purely desirability-focused nudges (e.g., why a goal is important).

    Additional Concepts (across lectures)

    • The S-O-R (Stimulus-Organism-Response) model is a framework for understanding how environmental stimuli (e.g., physical surroundings) affect consumers and their responses to the service encounter.

    • The Fogg Behaviour Model (FBM) a model for predicting and influencing behaviour in a certain task. The model suggests that behaviour occurs when motivation and ability are combined with a trigger. The model is a curve implying that high motivation compensates for low ability, simple tasks require less motivation, and without a trigger, motivation does not lead to behaviour.

    • Seven principles of persuasion: Reciprocity, Authority, Social Proof, Liking, Commitment/Consistency, Scarcity, and Unity. Desirability focuses on abstract goals as triggers for behaviour while feasibility focuses on tangible 'how' steps.
