In this review, researchers look at 12 studies pertaining to procrastination and the effect of it to the

student’s academic performance. Procrastination is a type of behavioral behavior in which people put
off or continuously postpone completing chores and making decisions. Procrastination comes in three
flavors: awakened procrastination, averted procrastination, and decision-making procrastination.
Additionally, questionnaires, diaries, and observations are common measurement tools. Age, sex, and
personality traits are the internal motivators of procrastination, as are the need to avoid failure and the
propensity toward perfection.

Procrastination has two effects: the negative sequence of self-consciousness, mood, and performance
outcome; and the favorable correlation between procrastination and creativity. Procrastination is
influenced by a variety of variables, including a person's personality, family history, task characteristics,
and environment. Additionally, procrastination can have a negative effect on a person's physical and
mental health as well as a decrease in performance results.
