Abstract

This study aims to: (1) deeply understand the Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) phenomenon in ready-to-drink coffee consumption among young people in Makassar City, and (2) explore how FOMO shapes consumption behavior patterns in social contexts and social media use. The theoretical framework encompasses consumer behavior theory, FOMO in social psychology, and the influence of social media on purchasing decisions. This research employs a descriptive phenomenological qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with 16 informants aged 17–29 years in Makassar. Thematic analysis was applied. Results show: first, FOMO manifests as a real and significant phenomenon in ready-to-drink coffee consumption, expressed through curiosity toward viral products, impulse to follow trends, and fear of being left out of social experiences; second, FOMO shapes consumption patterns through three main mechanisms social media trends (Instagram and TikTok as amplifiers), peer group pressure, and the need for social identity and existence. The convenience of ready-to-drink format serves as a catalyst shortening the distance between FOMO-driven impulse and actual purchase. The novelty lies in qualitative exploration of FOMO in practical beverage consumption in Indonesian urban settings. Findings contribute to the theoretical understanding of FOMO as a consumer behavior determinant with practical implications for coffee businesses and policymakers.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of the Competency Sub-Division (Subbagkompeten) group at the Human Resources Bureau (Ro SDM) of the X Regional Police using a qualitative approach with the group-level diagnostic model from Cummings and Worley (2015). The study aims to describe the dynamics of group effectiveness in terms of input, goal clarity, task structure, group composition, group functioning, and work norms, and to design appropriate interventions. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with six participants (one sub-division head, one affairs officer, and four administrative non-commissioned officers), supported by observations, questionnaires, and document studies from September to December 2022. Data analysis was conducted using verbatim and stream analysis approaches. The results show that the overall effectiveness of the Sub-Division is in the high category, but there are significant problems in the group functioning component, particularly related to the lack of personal initiative in decision-making and dependence on external communication on a single personnel. These findings cause obstacles to achieving group output. Based on the diagnostic results, this study recommends process consultation intervention as an appropriate approach to improve communication, interpersonal relationships, and overall group effectiveness. This research provides a practical contribution to police organizations in managing human resources at the work group level
