Resumen
El objetivo de este estudio era investigar cómo el fear of missing out (FOMO) y el yo digital extendido (DES) se relacionan con los hábitos (HSTE) y las razones (RSTE) de los individuos para compartir experiencias turísticas en las redes sociales. Se llevó a cabo una encuesta en línea con una muestra de 371 participantes y los datos se analizaron mediante modelos de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM). Los resultados mostraron la existencia de relaciones entre FOMO -> HSTE, FOMO -> RSTE y DES -> RSTE. También se halló una correlación positiva entre FOMOß <-> DES. Este estudio avanza en la comprensión del consumidor turístico analizando su comportamiento en las redes sociales durante los viajes.
