Academic Procrastination.

Academic procrastination has been defined as the general tendency to

postpone academic tasks in an academic setting. It is a common problem among students, and many have

to deal with it at almost every stage of their education because of the negative consequences, such as

academic failure and decreased well-being. The current study looked at gender differences in academic

procrastination, performance, and academic life satisfaction.

This study and the present study are related as they both assess the effects and consequences of

procrastination among students. The view of the past study about procrastination is the same at the

present study.

However, they disunite in terms of focus in their study. The past study focuses on the gender differences

in academic procrastination, performance, and academic life satisfaction of their students while the

present study focuses on the effects and consequences of procrastination among Saint Vincent's Catholic

School of Bayambang Inc. students.

Roles of Academic Procrastination. Within the framework of structural equation modeling, the goal of

this study was to look at the relationships between self-doubt, academic procrastination, self-esteem, and

academic achievement, as well as the indirect effects of academic procrastination on the relationships

between self-doubt and self-esteem and self-doubt and academic achievement. The Aitken Procrastination

Inventory, Rosenberg Self Esteem Inventory, Self Doubt Subscale of the Subjective Overachievement

Scale, and the Personal Information Sheet were used as data collection tools. The study results revealed

that academic procrastination plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between self-esteem and

academic performance.
It plays a full mediating role in the relationship between self-doubt and academic achievement.

This study and the current study are linked as they both address the effects and consequences of student

procrastination. The previous study's perspective on procrastination is the same as the current study's.

However, they differ in terms of focus in their study. The past study aimed to examine the relationships

among self-doubt, academic procrastination, self-esteem, and academic achievement while the present

study aimed to examine the the effects and consequences of procrastination among students.
