Data from: A threat to loyalty: Fear of missing out (FOMO) leads to reluctance to repeat current experiences

We investigate a popular but underresearched concept, the fear of missing
out (FOMO), on desirable experiences of which an individual is aware, but
in which they do not partake. Through laboratory and field studies, we
establish FOMO’s pervasiveness as a psychological phenomenon, present
real-life contexts wherein FOMO may be experienced, and explore its
behavioral consequences. Specifically, we show that FOMO poses a threat to
loyalty by decreasing one’s intentions to repeat a current experience and
may decrease the valuation of the current experience.
