Abstract：
The fear of missing out is a generalized anxiety stemming from the possibility of not being present at new events or advantageous situations of others. To explore potential mechanisms, a survey measuring the impact of event, coping style, anxiety, and fear of missing out was conducted with 1,014 college students (367 males and 647 females, aged 19-24 years). In addition, the study delved deeper into the dimensions of intrusion, avoidance, and hyperarousal concerning the impact of event, examining their roles in coping style, anxiety, and fear of missing out. Results showed that: (1) The impact of event could predict the fear of missing out positively. (2) A more positive coping style is negatively associated with anxiety. (3) A chain mediation effect of coping style and anxiety is observed in the path from hyperarousal and avoidance to the fear of missing out. (4) In contrast to the hyperarousal or avoidance, the path from intrusion to the fear of missing out is mediated by anxiety but not coping style. These findings motivate us to implement different intervention tactics for varying impacts of events.
摘要：
对错过的恐惧是一种普遍的焦虑，源于不出现在新事件或他人有利情况下的可能性。为了探索潜在的机制，衡量事件影响的调查，应对方式，焦虑,并对1014名大学生(男367人,女647人,19-24岁）。此外,这项研究更深入地研究了入侵的维度，回避,以及关于事件影响的过度觉醒，考察他们在应对方式中的作用，焦虑,害怕错过。结果表明：（1）事件的影响可以积极预测错过的恐惧。(2)更积极的应对方式与焦虑呈负相关。（3）在从过度唤醒和回避到害怕错过的路径中，观察到应对方式和焦虑的连锁调解作用。(4)与过度觉醒或回避相反，从入侵到害怕错过的路径是由焦虑而不是应对方式介导的。这些发现促使我们对事件的不同影响实施不同的干预策略。
