Abstract

This article examines the mechanisms by which customer value creation in-role behavior and customer value creation extra-role behavior influence customer well-being. The results from a survey of 103 business customer-supplier dyads show that customer value creation in-role behavior and customer value creation extra-role behavior influence customer value through a process of customer self-determination and customer role stress, leading to an increase in customer value and, in turn, customer well-being. Moreover, the results show that relationship quality and interpersonal attraction moderate the influence of customer value creation behaviors on customer self-determination and customer role stress.
