There are two main forms of procrastination according to studies from the 1970s-1980s: delaying the start of required tasks and persevering on a particular aspect of a task. Procrastination arises from tension and deadlines, and the situation rather than deliberate design. Later studies from the 1980s-2015 found procrastination is negatively associated with academic success, especially for younger students, but this relationship depends on the measures and scales used. Procrastinators are characterized as passive and failing to decide when action is needed to complete tasks by deadlines.
