Abstract

Abstract. Indonesia's increasing internet use has positive and negative impacts on social media users. The positive impact is maintaining communication, but on the other hand, it can lead to FoMO (Fear of Missing Out) which can interfere a person's mindfulness trait. This research aims to analyze the role of the trait mindfulness on FoMO of social media users. This research used  FoMO Scale and Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire. Measuring tools are distributed online using the convenience sampling method and it has got a total of 347 participants. The results of the regression test showed that the mindfulness trait dimensions significantly predicted FoMO F = 17.1; p < 0.001, R2 = 0.20 which means that the mindfulness trait has a 20% contribution to the fear of missing out, while the other 80% is influenced by other factors. However, only acting dimensions with awareness and non-judging of inner experience have significant predictive coefficients.Keywords: social media, fear of missing out, trait mindfulnessAbstrak. Meningkatnya penggunaan internet di Indonesia berdampak positif dan negatif bagi pengguna media sosial.
