Across three studies—113 survey respondents, 252 experimental participants, and 372 vignette reactions—remote workers consistently reported higher wFoMO, which was linked to negative affect, elevated stress, and reduced job satisfaction.

The authors recommend clear remote‑work policies, relational support, and inclusive communication to curb wFoMO.
