Abstract：
BACKGROUND: This study investigated the role of emotion regulation in relation to the links between fear of missing out (i.e., FOMO) and two components of problematic internet use: problematic social media use and doomscrolling.
METHODS: Participants (N = 603, Mage = 30.41, SDage = 7.64; 49.1% male-identifying) completed measures of fear of missing out, intrapersonal and interpersonal emotion regulation, and problematic social media use, and doomscrolling. A parallel mediation model was tested to examine the nature of the associations between fear of missing out, intrapersonal, and interpersonal emotion regulation, in accounting for variance in the outcome measures.
RESULTS: Analyses revealed that the effect of fear of missing out on problematic social media use was fully mediated by both intrapersonal and interpersonal emotion regulation. In contrast, the effect on doomscrolling was fully mediated by intrapersonal emotion regulation only.
CONCLUSIONS: Findings clarify the role of emotion regulation in explaining the relationship between fear of missing out and two types of problematic internet use, indicating a need to consider individual differences in emotion regulation in an evolving social media landscape.

摘要：
背景：这项研究调查了情绪调节与害怕错过之间的联系之间的作用（即，FOMO）和有问题的互联网使用的两个组成部分：有问题的社交媒体使用和厄运滚动。
方法：参与者（N=603，Mage=30.41，SDage=7.64；49.1％的男性认同）完成了对错过的恐惧措施，内部和人际情绪调节，和有问题的社交媒体使用，和doomscrolling。测试了一个平行的调解模型，以检查害怕错过，内心,和人际情绪调节，在考虑结果衡量标准的差异时。
结果：分析显示，害怕错过问题社交媒体使用的影响完全是由内心和人际情绪调节介导的。相比之下,对末日滚动的影响仅由个人情绪调节完全介导。
结论：研究结果阐明了情绪调节在解释错过恐惧与两种有问题的互联网使用之间的关系中的作用，这表明需要在不断发展的社交媒体环境中考虑情绪调节的个体差异。
