Academic procrastination merupakan sebuah perilaku negatif yang hampir terjadi pada seluruh peserta didik. Academic procrastination merupakan perilaku penghindaran terhadap tugas-tugas akademik dengan alasan adanya aktifitas lain sehingga membuat tugas-tugas utama terabaikan. Gejala academic procrastination sebagian besar ditunjukkan dari beberapa perilaku seperti sering menunda tugas-tugas pribadi, menghindari tanggung jawab akademik dan mementingkan kegiatan lain yang sebenarnya itu hanyalah sebuah bentuk penghindaran terhadap tanggung jawab yang diembannya. Dalam skala yang lebih luas, AP bisa berdampak keputus-asaan, stress dan paranoid terhadap tanggung jawabnya sendiri. Hal itu bisa terjadi karena beberapa faktor. Beberapa penelitian mengenai faktor penyebab AP pada mahasiswa sangat bervariasi. Hal itu disebabkan berbedanya situasi yang melatarbelakangi keadaan pikologis dan sosial mahasiswa. Artinya, faktor penyebab AP pada satu instansi pendidikan tinggi akan berbeda dengan instansi pendidikan tinggi lainnya. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa indeks kelulusan mahasiswa yang lulus tepat waktu dibawah 50%. Pada faktor primer, AP bisa terjadi karena anxiety, time disorganization, poor task approach, stress and fatigue. Selain itu, faktor sekunder yang juga menjadi penyebab AP seperti low discomfort tolerance and pleasure seeking, self-depreciation, environmental disorganization dan lack of assertion.References
