The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in a large U.S. state decided to
conduct a survey to determine the level of satisfaction with its services among
a random sample of consumers. The survey cost $25,000, and the results were
pretty positive—people in general seemed reasonably satisfied with DMV’s
services. As the agency’s managers were busy congratulating themselves, one
manager remarked, “So much for how people feel about us now. We’ll have to
work even harder just to maintain the current level of customer satisfaction
when we do the survey next year.” What would best explain this manager’s
observation?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Different people might be surveyed next year.
Consumer satisfaction can’t be accurately measured.
People don’t think of themselves as “consumers” when they deal with
government agencies.
Consumer expectations change over time and often increase.
The survey was probably biased this year because of poor sampling.
