Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to identify, describe and evaluate the link between public service quality and citizen-client’s satisfaction in local municipalities. The work is based on the revisited SERVQUAL model. A quantitative research is carried out through a questionnaire administered to 1,427 users of local public services in 21 councils. Two layers of analysis are carried out. First, an exploratory and
confirmatory factor analysis. Second an analysis through structural equations. Results show that all
aspects of service quality do not contribute identically to users ‘satisfaction.
