This study develops a service attitude scale for this survey. A total of 787 international tourists including American, Japanese and Taiwanese were interviewed.

There are friendliness, empathic feeling, enthusiastic service and problem solving. As the result of this study, there is a significant difference in customer satisfaction for employee service, among American, Japanese and Taiwanese tourists through ANOVA.
