Adolescents from intact families (married or unmarried but cohabitant) experienced more FoMO than adolescents from non-intact families (legally or de facto divorced), which is not in line with much of the existing literature. In addition, adolescents from non-intact families use SNS more frequently than adolescents from intact families. Adolescents from non-intact families often face additional household tasks and caretaking responsibilities for younger siblings and are “thus likely to become more independent at an earlier age”. Potentially, these adolescents connect with this (non-familial) support through social media, which may explain why the higher social media use of adolescents from non-intact families does not stimulate higher FoMO when compared to adolescents from intact families. Relationship quality with and between parents is directly and indirectly associated with FoMO. The relationship with the father with FoMO is stronger than the association with the relationship with the mother. Additionally, higher perceived relationship quality between parents is positively associated with FoMO too. This is also inconsistent with the findings that poor family functioning and conflict between parents are important predictors for the development of internet addiction in adolescents. Both associations can be explained by the fact that the role of relationships with the father is more imortant in the development of anxiety considering that high quality, positive relationships with fathers are less 'taken for granted' than with mothers.""
