Research on college mental health has found an alarming increase in anxiety among college student populations. Many have speculated about the consequences of social media engagement (SME) and garnered awareness of a relatively new phenomenon coined "fear of missing out" (FoMO). FoMO is characterized by a desire to remain constantly connected to others, for fear of being excluded from rewarding and fulfilling experiences. The aim of the present research was to investigate the possible links between anxiety and FoMO as predictors of SME. Data was collected from 152 college and graduate students (106 females, 45 males) using five self-report measures. Bivariate correlations confirmed positive relationships between trait anxiety, FoMO, and frequency of checking SME, though differences were revealed among males, graduate students, and first-generation students. Stepwise linear regression resulting in a three-factor model found that both anxiety and FoMO predict SME, and multiple regression mediation analysis confirmed that trait anxiety mediates the predictability of FoMO for SME. While this affirms the prediction that anxiety and FoMO contribute to SME, the present research also demonstrates that some individuals experience increased anxiety and FoMO independent of social media. These findings underscore the prevalence FoMO in college and graduate students as a multidimensional stressor closely related to anxiety. Interpretations and implications of the results, including recommendations for future research and clinical practice, are discussed.
