1. Academic stress has become part of the lives of the students, especially those who are at
the middle to late adolescent stage. It has been said that students get this stress from
having a lot of activities, quizzes, and other tasks that they need to do. However, some
students still manage to procrastinate despite of tons of schoolwork. Procrastination tends
to induce university students to postpone their schoolwork or to withhold the submission
of their assignments during the course of study. The researcher chose this problem
because the researcher noticed that almost of the students who are enrolled in this school
year have this problem. The researcher noticed it in the different social media platform
where the students are posting and writing their rants about school stuff. The researcher
will benefit into this study by knowing what are the different procrastination habits that
the student has and how will they cope up into this problem.
2. The participants of the study are the students from the Bookkeeping Sections which are
the 10 – Matapang, 10 – Malakas, 10 – Mahinahon. All of which attend the same school,
Camachiles National High School for the academic year 2020-2021. According to a study
made by Manfred Beutel (2016), people who is in the age of 14 – 29 years old are more
likely to procrastinate because of their high stress level. Thus, it has helped the
researchers to decide that the criteria for the study is that the respondents should be
coming from the Grade 10 students.

3. The researcher chose 10 – Matapang, 10 – Malakas, 10 – Mahinahon as the respondents

because this study is more suitable, relevant, and more accessible to them. In addition, the
researcher chose them because it will be easy for them to find answers to the questions.
Furthermore, the research will have a foundation that the paper is valid and accurate
because they chose the right respondents.
