AI literacy and digital psychological states: social-behavioral implications for FOMO and NOMOPHOBIA over time (2019-2025).
Article in BMC psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAI literacy has become increasingly relevant in digitally mediated environments, yet its relationship with fear of missing out (FOMO) and nomophobia remains underexplored.
methodThe study used an exploratory design to examine associations between AI literacy measured in 2025 and nomophobia and FOMO assessed at two time points (2019 and 2025).
resultsAlthough descriptive trends indicated that individuals with higher AI literacy tended to report lower nomophobia and higher FOMO scores, these interaction effects did not reach statistical significance. Accordingly, the findings should be considered preliminary and warrant further investigation.
conclusionsThe study provides exploratory and cross-sectional evidence on how AI literacy may be associated with AI literacy and digital psychological experiences at the 2025 measurement point, alongside longitudinal trends in nomophobia and FOMO. Accordingly, AI literacy was measured cross-sectionally and the sample is small (N = 30), the findings cannot be interpreted as causal, predictive, or differential effects over time, and should be read as preliminary patterns that require confirmation in larger, multi-wave studies.
