        The aim of this study was to identify barriers to the implementation and use of Internet banking in Keshavarzi Bank. Due to the fact that qualitative data was first collected through study and interviews with experts, at different stages, different tools were used to collect the required data. In the first stage, data was collected through interviews with experts and systematic review. In the second stage, a questionnaire related to the content analysis method was evaluated. The statistical population of the study was 20 experts with master's and doctoral degrees and high work experience in banking management who were selected based on purposive sampling. The results show that, after reviewing the background and interviewing with 20 experts, 20 open source codes were identified by using theme analysis. The results of qualitative content analysis showed that 20 open source codes were important enough. Convergent validity was performed and the fit of the model was confirmed. However, it was found that the most important priorities were the inequality of the Internet banking system in the country's banking network, unpreparedness of the national information network, technological infrastructure problems used in websites, negative customer experience and their low trust, and fake and misleading sites. Banks should regularly update and retain their customers' communication gateway systems such as mailbox and digital and online space, to make customers more willing to receive Internet banking services in the future.

        Online social media is an important innovation that has attracted individuals and companies. The purpose of this study is to "develop an online social media marketing model about consumer buying behavior". This utilizes a mixed-method (qualitative and quantitative). This study uses the research literature to extract the indicators, then, finalizes them by the Delphi technique in three different rounds. The study develops the qualitative model of the research based on the opinions of 20 experts as well as the application of Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) and MICMAC analysis. In the quantitative part, the study uses the Partial Least Squares (PLS) technique to implement SEM, validate, and test the predictive relevance of the initial model. This study applies Cohen's formula and determines 460 individuals as sample. The sampling method is non-probability. Furthermore, the statistical population of the study consists of online social media users from all over Iran. In this study, 9 key factors have been identified, modeled and analyzed. According to the MICMAC analysis results, perceived security (with the highest driving power) is identified as the driving indicator, and value co-creation (with the highest dependence) is identified as the result or target indicator. The ISM based model is validated using SEM and 15 hypotheses were checked using SEM-PLS technique, also all hypotheses except the second hypothesis were confirmed. Finally The findings confirmed Goodness of Fitness and ideal predictive relevance of the model. Manuscript profile
