Abstract

The current research endeavored to experimentally explore the correlation between identity achievement, identity moratorium, identity foreclosure, identity diffusion, and Fear of Missing Out (FOMO).The participants of the study (211) were sampled using purposive sampling where the criteria included college students of ages 17 to 22 and who know the language of English. The participants completed the survey which included the FOMO scale and Modified Marcia Identity Questionnaire. Statistical tools such as Person’s Product Moment Correlation and Hierarchal Regression analysis were used to analyzed the findings and the results of the study indicated that the relationship between identity moratorium, Identity foreclosure, identity diffusion and FOMO was significantly positive. Nonetheless, a notable inverse association was observed between identity achievement and FOMO. Considering the study's focus on the Indian population, further investigations are warranted to explore additional significant predictors of FOMO.
