After all, as the belief in locus of control is increased and the academic attributional styles of the students become pessimistic, the academic procrastination behavior is increased. When the relationship of demographic variables with academic procrastination, locus of control and academic attributional styles is examined, it was seen that male students exhibited more academic procrastination behavior compared to female students.
