Influence du profil de procrastination active sur les performances académiques des étudiants en sciences de l’éducation
Contenu principal de l'article
Résumé
INTRODUCTION. La procrastination passive est la tendance à retarder l'achèvement des tâches ou des décisions en raison d'un échec de l'autorégulation. Dans le milieu académique, ce comportement est associé à de faibles performances. Ces dernières années, une construction différente a été identifiée; la procrastination active, qui implique la capacité à retarder intentionnellement des tâches afin de les exécuter d’une façon plus efficace. Les objectifs de cette étude sont: a) d'analyser les profils de procrastination active présentés par les étudiants en sciences de l'éducation, et b) d'examiner leurs différences en fonction du genre et des leurs résultats académiques. MÉTHODE. 330 étudiants universitaires ont participé à la recherche. La nouvelle échelle de procrastination active a été appliquée pour obtenir les profils de la construction. Une analyse hiérarchique de cluster avec les facteurs d'échelle, une analyse chi-carré croisant le cluster et le genre, et une analyse unidimensionnelle des variances ANOVA avec les performances académiques ont été effectuées. RÉSULTATS. Les résultats ont montré que: a) il y avait quatre profils parmi les étudiants, appelés procrastination active, procrastination passive, procrastination active modérée et non-procrastination; b) les femmes présentaient un profil de non-procrastination dans une plus grande mesure que les hommes; c) les étudiants avec une procrastination active et nonprocrastinateur présentaient des performances académiques significativement plus élevées que les étudiants avec un profil de procrastination passive. DISCUSSION. Selon la construction analysée, les étudiants présentant une procrastination active ont la capacité de retarder leurs tâches académiques pour atteindre une meilleure performance, ils sont habitués à travailler sous pression et à gérer leur temps de travail. Au contraire, ceux qui présentent un retard passif doivent faire l'objet de programmes d'intervention universitaires afin qu'ils apprennent à organiser leur temps d’étude et à surmonter leur échec de l’autorégulation.
