Abstract
Though, there are opportunities and demands of utilizing social media for supporting public policy making processes, a way to compilate sentiments on social media into service quality measurements is yet to be proposed in the literature. This paper suggests a systematic method to transform sentiments of tweets into SERVQUAL constructs for tracking of perceived service quality of NHS in the UK. In this study, we propose a methodology of identifying more reliable topic sets by repeating LDA and clustering topic sets, and determine the meanings of topics guided by an existing theory in service quality. To show the applicability of our method, we select healthcare as our target area and pick NHS of U.K for measuring service quality of public policy. We collected tweets about NHS for about 4 years and applied the suggested methodology.
