“…Studies on procrastination conclude that procrastination brings undesired effects on individuals, such as low well-being and work performances, in both education institutions and workplaces (Malatincova´, 2015;Metin et al, 2018;Orpen, 1998a;Pearlman-avnion & Zibenberg, 2018;Van Eerde, 2003). However, the effect of procrastination on employees' and students' achievement was found to be interacted with psychological states, personality and other organizational aspects (Grund & Fries, 2018b;Hicks et al, 2015;Metin et al, 2016).…”

“…The study proposes that the theory tends to be consistent, both in the education and the work setting. By considering some previous findings about procrastination (Meirav, 2018;Pearlman-avnion & Zibenberg, 2018), the antecedents (Senécal et al, 1995;Van Eerde, 2003;Van Eerde & Klingsieck, 2018) and its effects on both academic and work performance (Kim et al, 2017;Metin et al, 2018;Ryung & Hee, 2015;Saele et al, 2017), The following Figure 1 shows this study's theoretical model: Following the Self-Regulation theory, people need PsyCap to maximise their executive function (regulation). This study predicts that PsyCap can leverage students' academic achievement and employees' performance by reducing the procrastination impact on their performances.…”

This study aimed at investigating the effect of Psychological Capital (PsyCap) on students' academic achievement and employees' performance through procrastination at different levels of conscientiousness. The proposed theoretical model was examined using a moderated-mediation regression technique. The first group of participants comprised 1,670 university students from four major universities in the city of Makassar. Most of them were female (73.7%) with ages ranged from 17 to 24. The second group consisted of 400 employees (female, 57.5%) from five major organisations representing both private and public sectors in Makassar. The findings suggested that the students' PsyCap had a negative direct impact on academic procrastination, but procrastination did not significantly impact students' cumulative Grade-Point Average (GPA).

Procrastination in the academic institution is not new since it prevails from students even to staff. This might create problems, especially in the individual’s output. This study analyzed the relationship, procrastination level, and the work productivity of academic staff from a tertiary education institution in Central Luzon, Philippines. Using a convenience sampling technique, 70 academic staff took part in the survey. This study used a descriptive-correlational design with an adapted questionnaire from McCloskey (2011) and Buuri (2015) as an instrument. For the statistical analysis, the study used SPSS 23 to analyze the gathered data. The study found that the academic staff “often” subject themselves to procrastination, and they “agree” that they are productive in their work. There were significant differences found in the procrastination level and work productivity of the academic staff when grouped according to sex, civil status, and years in service. In terms of relationship, the study confirmed a low direct relationship between the level of procrastination and work productivity of the academic staff. Based on the aforementioned results, the researcher provided some implications for the institution to consider.

“…Therefore, to complete their daily tasks, it may take longer to work (so that the concentration level becomes lower and more fatigued) or may even rush to carry out their duties (so that it might lead to errors). As a result, it creates procrastination behavior, which results in lower performance results (Metin, U.B., et al, 2018). The organization must also provide counseling for employees to learn stress management techniques to overcome stress problems so that high performance can be achieved (Ali, W.U., et al, 2014).…”
