This study examined the relationship between loneliness and problematic mobile phone use among university students, as well as the mediating role of fear of missing out in that relationship. College undergraduates ( n  = 233; female = 51.1%; first-year students = 12.9%; mean age = 22.50 years, SD =1.70 years) from several Chinese provinces completed the University of California Los Angeles Loneliness Scale, The shortened Mobile Phone Problem Use Scale, and the Fear of Missing Out Scale. Statistical analysis confirmed the positive correlation among loneliness, problematic mobile phone use, and fear of missing out. Following multiple regression analysis, results showed that demographic variables including age, sex, and place of hometown did not predict problematic mobile phone use. These findings suggest that the fear of missing out has a significant influence on how college students manage their loneliness and problematic mobile phone use.
