This study aimed to test the relationships between Fear of Missing Out (FoMO), the quantity of networks, frequency of use of social networks, and subjective well-being (SWB) and investigate the predictive role of these variables on SWB. To this end, the research was conducted online and included 265 participants of both genders, between 18 and 73 years old. The results showed a negative correlation between FoMO and SWB and a negative correlation between quantity and frequency of social network use and SWB. Furthermore, in relation to the FoMO regression results, belonging was a negative predictor of all three components of SWB. In view of this, it was observed that both feelings arising from FoMO and quantity and frequency of social network use tend to negatively impact SWB within the Brazilian context.
