GELİŞMELERİ KAÇIRMA KORKUSUNUN SOSYOTELİZM DAVRANIŞINA OLAN ETKİSİNDE PROBLEMLİ SOSYAL MEDYA KULLANIMININ ARACI ROLÜ: İSVEÇ ÖRNEĞİ

Gelişmeleri kaçırma korkusu (FoMO) ve sosyotelizm davranışı bireyin sosyal ilişkilerini, iş performansını ve genel yaşam kalitesini olumsuz yönde etkileyen psikolojik unsurlardan bazılarıdır. Alan yazınında, olumsuz bir duygu durumu olan FoMO’nun sosyotelizm davranışıyla ilişkili olabileceğine dair bulgular yer almaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amaçlarından ilki FoMO, problemli sosyal medya kullanımı ve sosyotelizm davranışı arasındaki ilişkileri incelemektir. Çalışmanın ikinci amacı ise FoMO ve sosyotelizm davranışı arasındaki ilişkide problemli sosyal medya kullanımının aracılık rolünü incelemektir. Bu kapsamda çalışmanın örneklemi, İsveç’in Göteborg Üniversitesi’nde öğrenim gören toplam 451 (217 (%48.1) kadın, 234 (%51.9) erkek) üniversite öğrencisinden oluşmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamına dahil olan öğrencilere yüz yüze anket uygulanmıştır. Gelişmeleri Kaçırma Korkusu (FoMO) Ölçeği, Problemli Sosyal Medya Kullanım Ölçeği ve Sosyotelizm Davranışı Ölçeği veri toplama araçları olarak kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, FoMO’nun ve problemli sosyal medya kullanımının sosyotelizm davranışını anlamlı olarak yordadığını göstermiştir. Ayrıca, FoMO’nun sosyotelizm davranışının alt boyutu olan telefon tutkusuna olan etkisinde problemli sosyal medya kullanımının aracı rolüne sahip olduğu bulunurken FoMO’nun sosyotelizm davranışının bir diğer alt boyutu olan iletişim bozukluğuna olan etkisinde problemli sosyal medya kullanımının aracı rolü bulunmamıştır. Bu kapsamda, elde edilen bulguların hem alan yazınına hem de pratiğe önemli katkılar sunacağı düşünülmektedir.

THE MEDIATING ROLE OF PROBLEMATIC SOCIAL MEDIA USE IN THE IMPACT OF FEAR OF MISSING OUT ON PHUBBING BEHAVIOR: THE SWEDISH EXAMPLE

Fear of missing out (FoMO) and phubbing behavior are some of the psychological factors that negatively affect an individual's social relationships, work performance, and overall quality of life. There is evidence in the literature that the FoMO on developments is a negative emotional state that can be associated with phubbing behavior. The first objective of this study is to examine the relationships between FoMO, problematic social media use, and phubbing behavior. The second aim of the study is to examine the mediating role of problematic social media use in the relationship between FoMO and phubbing behavior. In this context, the study sample consists of a total of 451 (217 (48.1%) female, 234 (51.9%) male) university students studying at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. The students included in the study were interviewed with a personal questionnaire. The data collection instruments used were the Fear of Missing Out Scale, the Problematic Social Media Use Scale, and the Phubbing Behavior Scale. Results showed that FoMO and problematic social media use significantly predicted phubbing behavior. In addition, problematic social media use was found to have a mediating role in the effect of FoMO on telephone passion, which is a subdimension of phubbing behavior, whereas problematic social media use had no mediating role in the effect of FoMO on communication disorder, which is another subdimension of phubbing behavior. Therefore, it is anticipated that the findings obtained will make an important contribution to both the literature and practice.
