The proposed hypotheses are empirically tested in this study using a PLS-SEM and Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA) method combination. The novel methodology adopted in this study includes the use of NCA, IPMA matrix, permutation test, CTA, and FIMIX. The assessment of the outer model, the inner model, the NCA matrix, and the IPMA matrix are the four steps that the paper takes. Instagram users with prior experience making purchases online made up the statistical population of the study. Four hundred twenty-seven questionnaires were analyzed by SmartPLS3 software. Based on the findings, SNM positively and significantly influenced economic, enjoyment, and relational values. Furthermore, these three types of values significantly and directly influenced CPB. For CPB, the model accounted for 73.8% of the variance. The model had high predictive power because it outperformed the PLS-SEM benchmark for all of the target construct\u2019s indicators in terms of root mean square error (RMSE). According to the NCA\u2019s findings, SNM, economic, recreational, and relational values are necessary conditions for CPB that are meaningful (d \u2265 0.1) and significant (p &lt; 0.05). Four prerequisites must be met for CPB to reach a 50% level: relational value at no less than 8.3%, enjoyment value at no less than 16.7%, economic value at no less than 33.3%, and SNM at no less than 31.1%. The highest importance score for SNM is shown to be 0.738, which means that if Instagram channels improve their SNM performance by one unit point, their overall SNM will also improve by 0.738.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jrfm15100440","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,28]],"date-time":"2022-09-28T22:53:19Z","timestamp":1664405599000},"page":"440","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Social Networks Marketing, Value Co-Creation, and Consumer Purchase Behavior: Combining PLS-SEM and NCA"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Farzin","family":"Arbabi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Economics, Central Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran 1955847781, Iran"}]},{"given":"Seyed Mohammad","family":"Khansari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Economics, Faculty of Administrative Sciences and Economics, Shahid Ashrafi Esfahani University, Isfahan 4999981799, Iran"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6808-1327","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aidin","family":"Salamzadeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Business Management, Faculty of Management, University of Tehran, Tehran 141556311, Iran"}]},{"given":"Abbas","family":"Gholampour","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Innovation and Entrepreneurship Research Lab, London EC4N 7TW, UK"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0125-3707","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pejman","family":"Ebrahimi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Doctoral School of Economic and Regional Sciences, Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences (MATE), 2100 G\u00f6d\u00f6ll\u0151, Hungary"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6058-009X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Fekete-Farkas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Agricultural and Food Economics, Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences (MATE), 2100 G\u00f6d\u00f6ll\u0151, Hungary"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1093","DOI":"10.25300\/MISQ\/2013\/37.4.05","article-title":"Differential influence of blogs across different stages of decision making: The case of venture capitalists","volume":"37","author":"Aggarwal","year":"2013","journal-title":"Mis Quarterly"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Agichtein, Eugene, Castillo, Carlos, Donato, Debora, Gionis, Aristides, and Mishne, Gilad (, January February).
