Abstract
Procrastination is consistently viewed as problematic to academic success and students’ general well-being. There are prevailing questions regarding the underlying and maintaining mechanisms of procrastination, which are yet to be learned. The present research study examines the status of procrastination among university students in Singapore and its relationships with time management and emotional regulation. A total of 105 participants completed our survey mainly containing two scales – the Pure Procrastination Scale (PPS) with a total of 12 items, as well as the Assessment of Time Management Skills (ATMS) with a total of 11 items in the time management subscale and 5 items in the regulation of emotion subscale. The results of our survey suggest that there is a negative relationship between procrastination and time management, as well as a negative relationship between procrastination and emotional regulation. Students with a disability tend to significantly procrastinate more than students without a disability. Procrastination levels were also reported to not have changed before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic, implying that online courses can be deployed without much concern for students’ procrastination levels.
