Abstract

The objective of this study was to test the relationships between subjective well-being (SWB), Fear of Missing Out (FoMO), quantity and frequency of social network use, as well as to investigate the predictive role of these variables on SWB. To this end, the research was conducted online and included 265 participants of both genders, between 18 and 73 years old. The results showed a negative correlation between FoMO and SWB, a positive correlation between quantity and frequency of social network use and FoMO, and a negative correlation between quantity and frequency of social network use and SWB. Furthermore, in relation to the FoMO regression results, belonging was a negative predictor of all three components of SWB.  In view of this, it was observed that both feelings arising from FoMO and quantity and frequency of social network use tend to negatively impact SWB within the Brazilian context.
