FOMO ve Problemli Sosyal Medya Kullanımı: Türkiye’deki Üniversite Öğrencileri Üzerinde Bir Araştırma

Bu çalışma gelişmeleri kaçırma korkusu (FOMO) ve aşırı sosyal medya kullanımı arasındaki ilişkiyi Türkiye’deki üniversite öğrencileri (17-55 yaş aralığı) üzerinde incelemektedir. FOMO ölçeğine ait faktör analizi söz konusu kavramın iki boyut olarak değerlendirilebileceğini göstermiştir: (1) Deneyim kaçırma korkusu ve (2) Aktivite kaçırma korkusu. Sonuçlar aktivite kaçırma korkusunun problemli sosyal medya kullanımını arttırdığını ancak deneyim kaçırma korkusunun önemli bir etkisinin olmadığını göstermiştir. Bu ilişkinin ters yönde de geçerli olduğu görülmüştür: Sosyal medya kullanımı tutkusu gelişmeleri kaçırma korkusunda (aktivite ve deneyim) artışa yol açmıştır. Deneyim kaçırma korkusu problemli sosyal medya kullanımı (PSMU) ve sosyal medya kullanma arzusu ile ilişkilidir.

Fear of Missing Out and Problematic Social Media Use: A Research Among University Students in Turkey

This study examines the relationship of fear of missing out (FOMO) with heavy social networking among Turkish university students (aged 17 - 55). Factor analysis of FOMO scale led us to evaluate the construct under two dimensions as (1) fear of missing experience and (2) fear of missing activity. The results revealed that fear of missing activity increases social media intrusion while fear of missing experience is found to have no significant effect. The reverse relationship is also valid: an urge to use social media predicts fear of missing out (activity and experience). Fear of missing experience is associated with problematic social media use (PSMU) and a high desire to use social media.
