Research on Intervention Strategies for Procrastination Among College Students from an Educational Psychology Perspective

Mingwei Jin

Abstract


This study examines the causes of procrastination among university students and corresponding intervention strategies through an
educational psychology lens, proposing a multi-dimensional analytical framework encompassing cognitive, affective, motivational, and environmental factors. The research identifies procrastination as arising from the complex interplay of cognitive distortions, emotional dysregulation, motivational imbalances, and environmental stressors, with notable manifestations in perfectionist tendencies, emotional avoidance
mechanisms, extrinsic motivation dependency, and digital distractions. Building upon this framework, the paper develops a series of systematic intervention strategies grounded in educational psychology principles. Expe0rimental findings demonstrated that the proposed interventions
effectively enhanced students task initiation willingness while fostering academic self-efficacy.
