La relación entre el uso problemático del smartphone y el fear of missing out: un meta-análisis

  • Sergio Hidalgo-Fuentes Universidad de Valencia
Palabras clave: uso problemático del smartphone, adicción al smartphone, fear of missing out, meta-análisis

Resumen

El uso problemático del smartphone se ha convertido en un problema de salud a nivel mundial con amplias repercusiones en la salud mental. El objetivo del presente meta-análisis es examinar la relación entre el uso problemático del smartphone y el fear of missing out. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en las bases de datos PsycInfo, Web of Science y PubMed, recuperando un total de 32 artículos que cumplían los criterios de inclusión con una muestra total de 26.077 participantes. El tamaño del efecto obtenido mediante un modelo de efectos aleatorios es significativo y positivo (Zr = 0.47). Los análisis de meta-regresión mostraron que el sexo y la edad no son variables moderadoras estadísticamente significativas. No se obtuvieron evidencias de sesgo de publicación. Aquellos sujetos que muestran mayores puntuaciones de uso problemático del smartphone también presentan mayores niveles de fear of missing out. Se presentan las limitaciones del trabajo. Se señala la necesidad de continuar investigando la relación entre las dos variables, especialmente mediante estudios de tipo longitudinal.
