SELF-REGULATION AND FEAR OF MISSING OUT (FOMO) ON COLLEGE STUDENTS INSTAGRAM USERS

This study aims to test the relationship between self-regulation and Fear of Missing Out (FoMO). This research was conducted on 100 college students of Universitas Muhammadiyah Purwokerto, Indonesia, from representatives of 11 faculties. The data collection method used the FoMO scale and the self-regulation scale. The reliability test used Cronbach’s alpha, and the validity test used the product-moment correlation technique. Validity Test uses product-moment correlation technique, while Reliability Test uses alpha Cronbach. Test validity with N = 40 and table = 0.312 (p=0.05). FoMO scale of 40 items. There were 31 valid items and nine deciduous items moving from 0.334 to 0.715 with a reliability of 0.916. At the same time, the scale of self-regulation is as much as 50 items. There were 38 valid items and 12 deciduous items moving from 0.316 to 0.704 with reliability of 0.925. Based on the results of the study obtained Fcount = 0.739 with Ftable=1.69 (F count < Ftable) and r count = -0.595 with p = 0.000 (p < 0.05) so based on the results of the analysis that there is a significant relationship between FoMO and self-regulation in students Instagram users at Universitas Muhammadiyah Purwokerto, Indonesia. The correlation result indicates a negative value, meaning the higher the self-regulation, the lower the FoMO, or the lower the self-regulation, the higher the FoMO. Then obtained the value of coefficient self-regulation variable determination against FoMO of 35.4%
