In today’s interconnected world, the widespread use of the Internet necessitates an understanding of factors influencing individuals’ ability to maintain a balanced relationship with technology. This study investigates digital life balance (DLB) by examining its associations with Internet social capital (ISC), loneliness, fear of missing out (FoMO), and anxiety levels. Five hundred and twenty participants (66% women; Mage=30.12 years, SD=12.46) took part in the data collection. Drawing upon the Psychology of Harmony and Harmonization framework, the study revealed negative correlations between DLB and ISC, loneliness, FoMO, and anxiety levels. Higher ISC was associated with lower DLB, suggesting that an extensive online network might lead to technological imbalance. Increased loneliness, FoMO, and anxiety were negatively associated with DLB, indicating possible disruptions between online and offline activities. |
