The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of source credibility cues (attractiveness, trustworthiness, expertise, and homophily) on the online buying intention of millennials who are using Instagram. Another goal of this study is to measure the effect of para-social interaction (PSIs) on consumer buying intention and also to evaluate its moderating role in the relationship between source credibility cues (SCC) and consumer buying intention.
