Resumo: Procrastination is a common behavior, mainly in school settings. Only a few studies have analyzed the associations of academic procrastination with students’ personal and family variables. In the present work, we analyzed the impact of socio-personal variables (e.g., parents’ education, number of siblings, school grade level, and underachievement) on students’ academic procrastination profiles. Two independent samples of 580 and 809 seventh to ninth graders, students attending the last three years of Portuguese Compulsory Education, have been taken. The findings, similar in both studies, reveal that procrastination decreases when the parents’ education is higher, but it increases along with the number of siblings, the grade level, and the underachievement. The results are discussed in view of the findings of previous research. The implications for educational practice are also analyzed.

Pocos estudios han analizado las relaciones entre la procrastinación académica y variables personales y familiares. En este trabajo analizamos el impacto de variables socio-personales tales como la escolaridad de la madre y del padre, el número de hermanos, el curso y el fracaso escolar evaluado a través del número de cursos suspensos utilizando ANOVAS en dos muestras independientes de 580 y 809 sujetos de los 3 primeros cursos de Enseñanza Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO). Los datos, similares en los dos estudios, revelan que la procrastinación decrece con el aumento de escolaridad de la madre y del padre, pero incrementa con el número de hermanos, el curso en ESO y el fracaso escolar. Los resultados son discutidos en función de los hallazgos de las investigaciones previas. Se analizan las implicaciones para la práctica educativa.Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) - PTDC/CED/66503/2006Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM)Universidade do MinhoRosário, PedroCosta, MartaNúñez Perez, José CarlosGonzález-Pienda, Júlio A.Solano Pizarro, PaulaValle, Antonio20092009-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/11935eng"The Spanish Journal of Psychology."
