Abstract
The integration of online learning greatly affects final-year students who are working on their thesis. One common challenge they face is academic procrastination. This behavior is influenced by internal factors, particularly self-control and time management, as well as external factors such as authoritarian parenting. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between self-control, time management, and authoritarian parenting on students' academic procrastination. A total of 350 final-year students from the University of Muhammadiyah Surakarta were selected as participants through a convenience sampling method. A quantitative design was adopted, and data were collected using scales for academic procrastination, self-control, time management, and authoritarian parenting, all of which were validated and tested for reliability. Data was analyzed using multiple regression, resulting in an F-value of 94.506 and a p-value of 0.000. The results showed that self-control, time management, and authoritarian parenting were significantly correlated with academic procrastination among final-year students at the University of Muhammadiyah Surakarta. The beta coefficients for self-control and academic procrastination, as well as time management and academic procrastination, were negative, with values of -0.286 and -0.261, respectively. This indicated that high self-control and time management could reduce academic procrastination. Moreover, authoritarian parenting showed a significant value of 0.069, suggesting that students getting exposed to higher levels of such parenting style were more likely to engage in academic procrastination. The effective contribution of self-control, time management, and authoritarian parenting to academic procrastination was found to be 45%. Based on these results, improving self-control could be an effective strategy for reducing academic procrastination.
