Hábitos de estudio y procrastinación en adolescentes de 8vo a 2do de bachillerato de una institución educativa del norte de Quito, durante el año 2024

Abstract

The present research work aims to establish the relationship between procrastination and study habits in adolescents of an educational unit in the north of Quito in the year 2024. This study was carried out through a quantitative, descriptive and correlational research methodology, with a population of 54 students from 8th to 2nd grade of high school. The information was collected using the Study Habits and Techniques Questionnaire (CHTE) by Alvarez and Fernández, which contains 56 questions, and the PROCRASTINATION ASSESSMENT SCALE-STUDENTS (PASS) questionnaire by Garzón and Gil, which consists of two parts; the first is dedicated to identifying the frequency and the second to identifying the reasons for procrastination. The results obtained through the kolmogorov-Sperman correlation coefficient show that there is a negative inverse correlation of (-0.20) between the study habits and procrastination variables, i.e. if procrastination increases, study habits decrease. In addition, it was found that students have high levels of procrastination and poor study skills.
