%T HUBUNGAN ANTARA FEAR OF MISSING OUT (FOMO) DAN DARK TRIAD PERSONALITY TRAITS DENGAN CYBERSTALKING PADA EMERGING ADULT PENGGUNA INSTAGRAM
%X In the digital era, the boundaries between the real and virtual worlds are
becoming increasingly blurred, encouraging individuals to stay connected
through social media. However, this urge does not always lead to positive
interactions at times, it manifests as cyberstalking behavior. This phenomenon
is suspected to be associated with Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and dark triad
personality traits, two psychological factors that can trigger an obsessive drive
to monitor other online activities. This study aims to examine the relationship
between FoMO and dark triad personality traits with cyberstalking among
Instagram users. Emerging adults were selected as participants, considering
that this age group is in a developmental phase characterized by vulnerability
to social pressure and identity exploration in the digital world. This research
employs a correlational quantitative method. The respondents consist of 424
Instagram users from Java Island, selected through quota sampling. The
instruments used in this study include the Cyberstalking Scale, an adopted
version of the Short Dark Triad (SD3), and adapted version of the Online
FoMO Scale. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linear regression
tests and comparative analysis. The findings indicate a significant correlation
between FoMO and dark triad personality traits with cyberstalking among
emerging adult users. Additionally, a partial correlation was found between
FoMO and cyberstalking, with regression coefficients of 0.301 and 0.272,
respectively. The combined effective contribution of both independent
variables to cyberstalking was 44.6% with FoMO contributing 24.8% and dark
triad personality traits contributing 19.8%. No significant gender differences
were found in cyberstalking levels. These results suggest that FoMO and dark
triad personality traits can serve as predictors cyberstalking. The practical
implication of this study highlights the importance of raising awareness among
Instagram users, particularly emerging adults, to manage their FoMO and dark
triad personality tendencies to prevent enganging in cyberstalking behavior.
