Are procrastinators psychologically healthy? Association between psychosocial problems and procrastination among college students in Shanghai, China : a syndemic approach
Procrastination has been closely linked to psychosocial health problems, such as depression and anxiety, among college students. However, few studies have focused on the magnifying effects of multiple psychosocial health problems on procrastination. We conducted a cross-sectional study by convenience sampling among 509 college students in Shanghai, China. Logistic regressions were performed to assess the relationship between psychosocial variables and procrastination and to verify the syndemic effect of psychosocial factors. Univariate analyses revealed that self-esteem, depression, and loneliness were associated with procrastination. In multivariate analyses, self-esteem and depression remained significant. College students with four psychosocial problems were approximately 2.5 times more vulnerable to procrastination compared with non-syndemic (have no more than one problem) students. The study indicates that college students with more psychosocial health problems exhibit severer procrastination, which in turn suggests that psychosocial syndemic theory can be applied to procrastination.
