MEASURING AIRPORT SERVICE QUALITY WITH THE SERVQUAL MODEL AND CONDUCTING RELATIONSHIP ANALYSIS OF SURVEY QUESTIONS WITH THE APRIORI ALGORITHM

Öz

Determining the level of service quality offered by airports is a complex problem, requiring the integration of multiple evaluation criteria and robust data analysis methods. This study aims to assess the service quality and overall satisfaction levels of passengers using Istanbul Airport by applying the SERVQUAL model, which measures the gap between expectations and perceptions. Additionally, the study investigates the relationships among survey questions using the Apriori algorithm, a popular data mining technique. The aim is to identify redundant or overlapping questions, enabling the refinement of future survey instruments by combining, modifying, or removing specific items. This approach not only enhances the efficiency of data collection but also improves the accuracy of service quality assessments. Determining the level of service provided at airports is a complex process that requires the evaluation of a large number of criteria. In order to accurately measure service quality, passenger evaluations should be analyzed with a systematic methodology. In this study, the expectations and perceptions of passengers using Istanbul Airport were evaluated using the SERVQUAL model. In this way, the overall service quality and satisfaction levels in the five basic dimensions of service were revealed. Another aim of the study is to analyze the content of the survey questions directed to the passengers and the relationships between them. In this context, the association rules between the questions were determined using the Apriori algorithm, one of the data mining methods. The results obtained allow for the creation of shorter and more targeted question sets by combining, removing or modifying some questions in future surveys.
