الملخص

Recent studies have shown certain risk indicators for young adults' decreased life satisfaction as a result of excessive social media use. However, few studies have looked at possible impact of problematic social media on life satisfaction, and less information is known about the mediating factors that contribute to this association. The purpose of the current study was to determine whether problematic social media use predicts life satisfaction among young adults. It also explored whether phubbing behaviour and fear of missing out might both serve as mediators in this relationship. A sample of 351 young adults (18–25, M age = 19.74 years, SD = 1.84) from several countries filled the Social Media Use Questionnaire (SMUQ), Generic Scale of Phubbing (GSP), Fear of Missing Out (FoMOs), and Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS). The findings showed that (a) problematic social media use was associated with lower levels of life satisfaction, (b) phubbing behaviour and fear of missing out both mediated the relationship between problematic social media use and life satisfaction, and (c) phubbing behaviour and fear of missing out sequentially mediated the relationship between problematic social media use and life satisfaction. These findings have significant implications for prevention and intervention, in raising awareness about fear of missing out in connection to social media, and highlights consideration of the need to monitor and manage the act of snubbing others when using a mobile device.
