“…Academic procrastination (AP) is an intended action to postpone or delay the completion of timely academic activities unnecessarily [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ] and is highly prevalent among college students [ 1 , 3 , 5 , 6 ]. It is reported that over 70% of college students regularly postpone educational tasks such as readings and writing assignments [ 7 , 8 ].…”

Background: Academic procrastination (AP) has been a common problematic behavior in college students. While physical activity (PA) has been reported to increase self-efficacy and reduce AP, less is known about the potential relationships among them. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of self-efficacy on the relationship between PA and AP. Methods: 687 Chinese college students (51% males, 49% females) aged 17–23 years (M = 19.59, SD = 0.89) participated in the study. PA, self-efficacy, and AP were assessed using the Physical Activity Rating Scale-3 (PARS-3), the Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Procrastination Assessment Scale-Students (PASS), respectively. Pearson correlation analysis, linear regression analysis, and mediation analysis were used to analyze the data. Results: (1) PA has a significant and negative impact on college students’ AP, (2) PA has a significant and positive impact on college students’ self-efficacy; (3) self-efficacy has a significant and negative impact on AP in college students; and (4) self-efficacy significantly mediates the relationship between PA and AP. Conclusions: PA is an effective intervention for directly and indirectly decreasing college students’ AP. Therefore, more intervention efforts should focus on the promotion of PA in higher education to improve students’ self-efficacy and thus, to reduce AP among college students.

“…The other main finding of our study was that ADHD symptoms and self-control predicted bedtime procrastination. In previous studies, academic procrastination, general procrastination, evening chronotype, self-control, negative affect, electronic media use, and smartphone addiction were associated with bedtime procrastination (32)(33)(34)(35). One of our study's strongest aspects is examining the relationship between ADHD symptoms and bedtime procrastination.…”

Background/Aims: We aimed to examine the relationship between attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and bedtime procrastination. Materials and Methods: Five hundred fifty-three university students participated in our study. All participants, in turn, answered the sociodemographic data form, The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS v1.1), Bedtime Procrastination Scale (BPS), Brief Self-Control Scale (BSCS), and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). All participants were divided into two groups, probable ADHD and non-ADHD, according to the ASRS score. We compared sociodemographic data, sleep routines, and psychometric scales between these two groups. Finally, we analyzed the factors that could predict bedtime procrastination by hierarchical regression analysis. Results: The mean age of the participants was 20.55 ± 2.17. Most participants were female and unmarried (69.6% and 98.2%, respectively). BPS, ISI, and ASRS scores were significantly higher in the ADHD group than in the non-ADHD group (p < 0.01). BSCS score was significantly lower in the ADHD group than in the non-ADHD group (p < 0.01). Sleep duration was significantly lower in the ADHD group than in the non-ADHD group (p < 0.01). The correlation coefficients between ASRS and ISI, BPS, and BSCS were 0.461, 0.268, and -0.442, respectively (p < 0.01). Self-control and ADHD symptoms separately predicted bedtime procrastination with approximately the same variance (%4 vs. %3.9). Conclusions: Clinicians should evaluate bedtime procrastination in individuals with adult ADHD by clinical interview or BPS. Individuals with adult ADHD with bedtime procrastination should be assisted with cognitive behavioral therapy-insomnia and sleep hygiene.

“…Previous studies also found that patients with multiple physical and mental morbidities had outpatient visits 150% more than those with a single physical condition ( 39 ). While the literature suggests that the presence of multimorbidity may increase health literacy and self-management through regular healthcare visits and instructions from healthcare workers ( 40 ), the nature of this relationship is not well understood and may need further examination. The higher health literacy and self-management of the study subjects may be explained by the fact that the sample area is Shanghai, which is one of the most developed cities in China and has a high economic level and educational level among its residents.…”

PurposeTo evaluate the overall health status and health-related abilities and problems of elderly patients with diabetes and multimorbidity compared with those with diabetes only. Additionally, we aimed to identify different subgroups of elderly, multimorbid patients with diabetes.MethodsThis cross-sectional study included 538 elderly patients with diabetes. The participants completed a series of questionnaires on self-rated health (SRH), diabetes self-management, self-efficacy, health literacy, depression, and diabetes distress. Differences in health-related abilities and problems were compared between elderly patients with diabetes and multimorbidity and those with diabetes only, with adjustments for covariates using propensity score matching. A cluster analysis was also performed to identify the overall health status subgroups of elderly, multimorbid patients with diabetes. Additionally, we conducted a multinomial logistic regression analysis to examine the predictors of health-related abilities and problem-cluster group membership.ResultsElderly patients with diabetes and multimorbidity experienced more health-related abilities and problems than those with diabetes only, particularly within the domains of depression (p < 0.001), and diabetes distress. The level of health literacy (p < 0.001) and self-management (p = 0.013) in elderly, multimorbid patients with diabetes was also significantly higher than that in elderly patients with diabetes only. Cluster analysis of elderly, multimorbid patients with diabetes revealed three distinct overall health status clusters. Multinomial logistic regression analysis indicated that age (OR = 1.090, p = 0.043), sex (OR = 0.503, p = 0.024), living situation (OR = 2.769, p = 0.011), BMI (OR = 0.838, p = 0.034), regular exercise (OR = 2.912, p = 0.041 in poor vs. good; OR = 3.510, p < 0.001 in intermediate vs. good), and cerebral infarction (OR = 26.280, p < 0.001) independently and significantly predicted cluster membership.ConclusionCompared with elderly patients with diabetes only, those with diabetes and multimorbidity experienced more health-related abilities and problems within the domains of depression, and diabetes distress. Additionally, the level of health literacy and self-management in elderly, multimorbid patients with diabetes was significantly higher than that in those with diabetes only. Among the multimorbid diabetes group, old age, male sex, living without a partner, slightly lower BMIs, not exercising regularly, and experiencing cerebral infarctions were all positively correlated with worse overall health status.
