Validity and reliability tests as well as path analysis are used in this study. Instagram users who followed social media influencers were participants in the study. The data analysis methods used in this study are loading factor, AVE, cross-loading, and composite reliability tests. Data analysis results show that all variables have good validity and reliability, and the results of hypothetical testing show that digital influencers, brand engagement, and brand expected value have significant influence on purchase intention on Instagram users.
