Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship of Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) with psychological well-being in late adolescents using social media. Participants in this study were 104 adolescents with characteristics aged 17-22 years. Data was collected from March to April 2020. The results of the data analysis showed that there was a negative relationship between Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and Psychological Well-Being in the late adolescents of social media users (r = -0.295, p <0.05). Further analysis using the six Psychological Well-Being dimensions showed that the autonomy dimension (r = -0.198, p <0.05), self acceptance (r = -0.223, p <0.05), environmental mastery (r = -0.382, p <0.05) and positive relations with others (r = -0.225, p <0.05) have a negative relationship with Fear of Missing Out (FoMO), but the dimensions of personal growth (r = -0.142, p> 0.05) and purpose in life (r = - 0.128, p> 0.05) has no relationship with Fear of Missing Out (FoMO).
