Based on problem behavior theory and interpersonal acceptance-rejection theory, this study aimed to examine the mediating roles of self-esteem and fear of missing out (FoMO) on the influence of parental support on adolescents' problematic smartphone use. This study is a cross-sectional and descriptive study. A total of 260 Korean adolescents from two public middle schools were selected through convenience sampling (female, 50.4%; mean age, 13.16 ± 0.84; range age, 12~15). Participants completed self-report questionnaires assessing sociodemographic characteristics, parental support, self-esteem, FoMO, and problematic smartphone use. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, -test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and mediation analysis. The findings show that self-esteem and FoMO play a serial mediating role in the relationship between parental support and adolescents' problematic smartphone use. Specifically, parental support had a negative effect on adolescents' problematic smartphone use by increasing self-esteem but decreasing FoMO. These results provide further guidance in the prevention of and intervention of adolescent problematic smartphone use.
基于问题行为理论和人际接受-拒绝理论，本研究旨在检验自尊和错失恐惧（Fear of Missing Out，FoMO）在父母支持对青少年智能手机问题使用的影响中的中介作用。本研究为横断面描述性研究。通过便利抽样，从两所公立中学共选取了 260 名韩国青少年（女生占比 50.4%；平均年龄 13.16±0.84 岁；年龄范围 12~15 岁）。参与者完成了评估社会人口统计学特征、父母支持、自尊、错失恐惧和智能手机问题使用的自我报告问卷。使用描述性统计、t 检验、方差分析、皮尔逊相关系数和中介分析对收集的数据进行了分析。研究结果表明，自尊和错失恐惧在父母支持与青少年智能手机问题使用之间的关系中起着序列中介作用。具体而言，父母支持通过提高自尊和降低错失恐惧，对青少年的智能手机问题使用产生了负面影响。这些结果为预防和干预青少年智能手机问题使用提供了进一步的指导。
