Resumen
GARZON UMERENKOVA, Angélica y GIL FLORES, Javier. Time Management and Procrastination in High Education. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.3, pp.124-136. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy16-3.gtpe.
Procrastination constitutes a self-regulatory failure which conveys many negative effects at an academic level. We analyze time managing values as a predictor of procrastination, studying a sample of 494 Colombian students of first year of University. We gathered information about the frequency with which they postpone tasks and about their time management behaviors using the Time Management Behavior Questionnaire (TMBQ). After building a logistic regression model, the "establishment of objectives and priorities" scale's scores, added to those for perception of control over time, proved to be accurate predictors. This is not the case for time management tools or preferences for disorganization. Among demographics (sex, age and dedication), the condition of students who have a shared dedication to job and studies plays a relevant role.
