Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of customer responses of a survey of consumer attitudes is used for data analysis. In the first stage, concepts and constructs of the ‘service quality’ and ‘service-recovery quality’ for online retailers are identified through extensive literature review. In the second stage, survey of attitude measurement questionnaire was administered to customers, —who have experienced online shopping over a period of time. A 7-point Likert scale is used for capturing customer responses based on quota sampling technique. EFA is conducted using oblique rotation considering factor dependence.
