text: Procrastination is a well-known phenomenon that often entails negative
outcomes with regard to performance and subjective well-being. In an attempt to
understand the (alarming) character of procrastination, a large body of research
on the causes, correlates, and consequences of procrastination has been accumulating
over the last 40 years. The aim of this paper is to provide a systematic characterization
of the trends in procrastination research and to suggest future directions for
research and practice. The systematic characterization comprises a comparison
of procrastination to functional forms of delay (referred to as strategic delay)
and a presentation of the theoretical approaches to explaining procrastination.
The future directions suggested pertain to the development of a differentiated
understanding of procrastination and of integral interventions.
