Keywords:
procrastination, academic procrastination, personality traitsAbstract
Every human person, whether working or not, must complete a variety of tasks throughout the course of a day, yet these tasks are often put off due to numerous reasons. To put it another way, procrastination is the tendency to put off or postpone doing certain tasks. When it comes to the interpsychic physical and social environment, a person's personality refers to the collection of psychological features and components inside him or her that are ordered and typically persistent. When it comes to achievement in the classroom, academic procrastination and personality qualities are seen as critical determinants. Procrastination and personality have been the focus of most of the study on students. Procrastination has been shown to have an impact on an individual's personality, academic success, and psychological well-being. In the current research, academic procrastination is linked to a person's personality. There are a number of concerns related to academic procrastination that need to be addressed. Academic procrastination is still influenced by personality, despite the fact that this has been studied before. Students in various grades and levels of schooling need to be studied further.
