Kişilik Özelliklerinin Erteleme Davranışını Yordayıcılığı
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify whether the personality traits predict the general procrastination behaviour and to investigate procrastination behaviour according to gender and grade levels. The sample of the present study consisted of 675 university students; 506 female (75 %) and 169 male (25 %). “The General Procrastination Scale” (Çakıcı, 2003), “The Big Five Inventory” (Karaman, Doğan & Çoban, 2010) and “Personnel Information Form” were used in order to collect data. The one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), t-test, and regression analyses were used to analyze the data. The results of the analyses revealed that two personality dimensions namely conscientiousness and neuroticism were the significant predictors of procrastination. However, other dimensions of personality (extraversion, agreeableness and openness) had no significant predictive role on procrastination. According to gender, it was found that males are more likely to procrastinate than females. Moreover, it was observed that there was a significant difference between procrastination and grade levels; as the grade levels increased, procrastination increased.
