The aim of this study was to determine the associations between smartphone addiction, fear of missing out and academic performance amongst Preparatory Year Programme (PYP) students in Turkey. Data were collected using the Fear of Missing Out scale (FoMOs), the Smartphone Addiction Scale – Short Version (SAS-SV) and the Versant English Test from a sample of Turkish students enrolled in different undergraduate programmes (n = 139). On the whole, the findings of this study show that there is a significant difference, with consistently higher means in the female group, between the groups’ levels of smartphone addiction. The findings also indicate a negative relationship between the students’ academic performance and their levels of smartphone addiction. The SAS-SV was found to be a significant predictor of academic performance. The classroom implications of these data in terms of teaching and learning processes are discussed.
