Abstract

In this study, the mediating effect was tested. The mediator effect of FOMO was tested in the relationship between impulsivity and social media craving. The participants of the study consisted of 251 individuals, 106 of whom were females and 145 of whom were males. Barratt Impulsivity Scale, Social Media Craving Scale and fear of missing out Scala were used in the study. Mediation analysis were performed using Hayes’ (2017) process application. The power of impulsivity to interpret FOMO has been studied and it has been determined that impulsivity predicts FOMO in a meaningful way (F=12.99, R2=.05, p<.0001). Impulsivity explains 5% of the total variance in FOMO. 2nd ed. when the model was passed, the power of impulsivity to process Social Media craving was examined and the result was determined as significant. (F=7.41, R2=.03, p<.0001). 3. In the model, the mediated effect of FOMO in the relationship between impulsivity and social media craving was examined and it was determined that FOMO showed a full mediated effect (F=22.19, R2=.15, p<.0001). The power of impulsivity to predict social media craving was 3% in the total variant, while the variance was up to 15% with the inclusion of FOMO in the analysis. The results of Sobel and Bootstrapping tests were determined to be statistically significant in order to determine whether the indirect effect was significant (Sobel Z = -4.62, p <.0001).

Dürtüsellik ile Sosyal Medya Aşerme Arasındaki İlişkide FOMO’nun Aracılık Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada aracılık etkisi test edilmiştir. Dürtüsellik ile Sosyal Medya Aşerme arasındaki ilişkide FOMO’nun aracılık etkisi test edilmiştir. Araştırmanın katılımcı grubunu 106’sı (%42.2) kadın, 145’i (%57.78) .erkek olmak üzere toplam 251 birey oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada Barratt Dürtüsellik Ölçeği, Sosyal Medya Aşerme Ölçeği ve Sosyal Ortamlarda Gelişmeleri Kaçırma Korkusu Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Arabuluculuk analizi, Hayes’in (2017) süreç uygulaması kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Dürtüselliğin FOMO’yu yordama gücü incelenmiş ve Dürtüselliğin FOMO’yu anlamlı bir şekilde yordadığı (F=12.99, R2=.05, p<.0001) belirlenmiştir. Dürtüselliğin, FOMO içindeki toplam varyansın% 5'ini açıklamaktadır. 2. modelde geçildiğinde Dürtüselliğin Sosyal Medya Aşermeyi yordama gücü incelenmiş ve sonuç anlamlı (F=7.41, R2=.03, p<.0001) olarak belirlenmiştir. 3. Modelde Dürtüsellik ve Sosyal Medya Aşerme arasındaki ilişkide FOMO’nun aracılık etkisi incelenmiş ve FOMO’nun tam aracılık etkisi gösterdiği (F=22.19, R2=.15, p<.0001) belirlenmiştir. Dürtüselliğin Sosyal Medya Aşermeyi yordama gücü toplam varyansta % 3 iken FOMO’nun analize dahil edilmesiyle varyans %15’e kadar çıkmıştır. Dolaylı etkinin anlamlı olup olmadığının anlaşılması için Sobel ve Bootstrapping Testi uygulanmış sonuçlar istatistiksel (Sobel Z = -4.62, p <.0001) olarak anlamlı olduğu belirlenmiştir.
