The togetherness of smartphones and social media has emerged two negative phenomena called Nomophobia and FoMO. Nomophobia, the fear of no mobile phone, and FoMO, the fear of missing out developments on social media, present a risk especially for university students. University students now have longer durations of social media and smartphone usage due to Nomophobia and FoMO. With this increase in usage, university students are more likely to be predisposed to Nomophobia and FoMO, and therefore, have problems leading to fear, anxiety and stress. This study aimed to identify pre-service teachers' metaphorical perceptions of smartphone, Nomophobia and FoMO. In the literature, studies on Nomophobia and FoMO have been conducted as quantitative research. This study was designed with mixed method which includes at least one quantitative and one qualitative method. The findings of the study differed by smartphone usage duration of the pre-service teachers and their scores of the Nomophobia Questionnaire and the FoMO scale. According to the findings, the participants frequently used the metaphors of "friend, organ, eating, need, lover" for smartphone, "being lonely, nothingness" for Nomophobia and "failing to be up to date, necessity" for FoMO. Akıllı telefonlar ve sosyal medyanın birlikteliği, Nomofobi ve FoMO olarak adlandırılan iki olumsuz durumu ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bunlardan ilki Nomofobi, mobil telefondan yoksun olma korkusu ile FoMO, sosyal medyada gelişmeleri kaçırma korkusu olarak özellikle üniversite öğrencileri üzerinde risk teşkil etmektedir. Nomofobi ve FoMO yüzünden üniversite öğrencilerinin sosyal medya ve akıllı telefon kullanım süreleri artmıştır. Bu kullanım süresinin artması sonucunda, üniversite öğrencileri daha Nomofobi ve FoMO yatkın olmakta ve bu yüzünden korku, kaygı ve strese kadar yol açan sorunlar yaşamaktadırlar. Bu çalışmanın amacı da, öğretmen adaylarının akıllı telefon, Nomofobi, FoMO ile ilgili metaforik algılarını tespit etmektir. Alanyazında, Nomofobi ve FoMO ile ilgili çalışmalar incelendiğinde çalışmaların nicel araştırmalar boyutunda olduğu görülmektedir. Bu çalışma ise en az bir nicel ve bir nitel yöntem içeren karma yöntem ile desenlenmiştir. Araştırmanın bulguları, öğretmen adaylarının akıllı telefon kullanım süresine, Nomofobi ve FoMO ölçeğinden aldıkları puanlara göre farklılık göstermektedir.

One social media platform that is still highly favored by most people in this day and age is Instagram. Instagram users can present themselves in a visual form (eg, pictures and video) and text. Instagram promotes visual use, coupled with editing features which enable Instagram users to present themselves distinctly on social media. Friendship-contingent self-esteem is an important factor in presenting one's behavior in the context of friendly relations. However, there are negative impacts of use of social networking sites, such as lowering self-esteem, which is mediated by the fear of losing or fear of missing out (FoMO). This study aims to analyze the influence of friendship-contingent self-esteem and fear of missing out on self-presentation of Instagram users. Participants of this study were 326 male and female Instagram users spread across several provinces in Indonesia. This study uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to construct an empirical model of friendship-contingent self-esteem, fear of missing out, and self-presentation which fits the data. Results show adequate goodness of fit, however, the only variable found to influence self-presentation was only fear of missing out. Friendship-contingent self-esteem was found to affect the fear of missing out, while friendship-contingent self-esteem did not affect self-presentation.

Salah satu media sosial yang hingga saat ini masih digemari oleh kebanyakan orang, yaitu Instagram. Di Instagram para pengguna dapat mempresentasikan dirinya dalam bentuk visual (misal, gambar dan video) dan tulisan. Instagram sangat mengedepankan visual dalam penggunaannya, ditambah dengan fitur-fitur edit yang ada pada Instagram membuat para penggunanya memiliki perbedaan dalam mempresentasikan dirinya di media sosial. Friendship-contingent self-esteem merupakan faktor penting dalam mempresentasikan diri perilaku seseorang dalam konteks hubungan persahabatan. Namun, adapun dampak dari penggunaan situs jaringan sosial dapat menurunkan self-esteem seseorang yang dimediasi oleh rasa takut kehilangan atau fear of missing out (FoMO). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh friendship-contingent self-esteem dan fear of missing out terhadap self-presentation pengguna instagram. Partisipan penelitian ini berjumlah 326 orang pria dan wanita pengguna Instagram yang tersebar di beberapa provinsi di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) untuk mengonstruksi model empiris friendship-contingent self-esteem, fear of missing out, dan self-presentation yang fit dengan data. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah didapatkan goodness of fit yang baik, namun demikian setelah ditelaah lebih lanjut yang berpengaruh pada variabel self-presentation hanya fear of missing out. Sedangkan friendship-contingent self-esteem berpengaruh terhadap fear of missing out, dan friendship-contingent self-esteem tidak berpengaruh terhadap self-presentation.
