Procrastination dissected: The actual role of delay, trait anxiety and self-regulation in subjective perception of oneself as a procrastinator
Original language description
The study explores the concept of procrastination as an essentially subjective phenomenon which is only partly dependent on actual delay and self-regulation problems. A sample of college students completed measures of academic procrastination, task-related delay, task-related subjective procrastination and anxiety, performance-inhibiting and performance-enhancing trait anxiety, self-efficacy, self-esteem, and cognitive self-regulatory capacity. The study yielded a number of interesting findings. First,while procrastination was negatively related to both self-esteem and self-efficacy, performance-enhancing anxiety, a positive predictor of procrastination, correlated positively with both of these variables. Indeed, cluster analysis revealed three distinct groups of procrastinators, one of which showed relatively good self-regulatory skills, positive self-image and low anxiety despite high levels of both subjective procrastination and delay.
