Procrastination description |
---|
Procrastination is defined as the habitual/intentional delay of starting or finishing a task despite its negative consequences. It is a common human experience involving delay in everyday chores or even putting off salient tasks such as attending an appointment, submitting a job report or academic assignment or broaching a stressful issue with a partner. Although typically perceived as a negative trait due to its hindering effect on one's productivity often associated with depression, low self-esteem, guilt and inadequacy , it can also be considered a wise response to certain demands that could present risky or negative outcomes or require waiting for new information to arrive. Various types of procrastination (such as academic/non academic or behavioural/ indecisive) has their own underlying causes and effects. The most prominent explanation in present literature draws upon "Intemporal discounting, task averseness and certain personality traits such as indecisiveness and distractibility" as the common causes of procrastination. * A study of behavioural pattern of pigeons through delayed reward suggest that procrastination is not peculiar to humans but can also be observed in some animal. |
