Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) stems from individuals' dissatisfaction with their basic needs, and each individual develops distinct FoMO characteristics. This research aimed to analyze the relationship between personality types, fulfillment of basic needs, and the incidence of FoMO syndrome in East Java. We employed a correlational approach with a cross-sectional design for the study. The study's population comprised youths aged 12-25 in East Java. We obtained our research sample, consisting of 140 individuals, through proportionately stratified random sampling. The instruments we used included the Jung personality type indicator, a basic needs assessment, and the FoMO questionnaire. We analyzed the data using the chi-square test (p<0.05) and Spearman's rho (p<0.05). Our research findings indicated that the prevalent personality type in East Java was introverted, with 84 youths (60.0%). Additionally, 125 youths (89.3%) reported a high level of adequately met needs, while 71 (50.7%) fell into the moderate FoMO category. The Chi-square test revealed a significant correlation between personality type and the incidence of FoMO syndrome (p=0.000). Similarly, Spearman's rho indicated a significant link between meeting basic needs and the occurrence of FoMO syndrome (p=0.000). Adolescents with both introverted and extroverted personality types, coupled with low basic needs satisfaction, were more prone to experiencing FoMO syndrome. Our study's implications underscored the necessity of increasing motivation to fulfill basic needs, thereby mitigating the likelihood of experiencing FoMO.
