Summary: | The study investigated fine arts students' academic volitional strategies in relation to their procrastination tendencies at the College of Fine Arts and Design, University of Santo Tomas, Manila. The volitional control strategies are based on the concept of Corno and Kanfer's (1993) volitional control strategies and the three factors derived from exploratory item analyses which are self-efficacy enhancement, negative-based incentives, and stress-reducing actions. Pure Procrastination Scale and Academic Volitional Strategies Inventory were administered to 415 participants to measure procrastination tendencies and the use of volitional strategies. Correlation analyses were performed to determine if self-efficacy enhancement, negative-based incentives, and stress-reducing actions have significant relationships with procrastination. The results showed that the three volitional strategies have a significant and negative relationship with procrastination. It means that the higher use of volitional strategies, the lower is the tendency to engage in procrastination. Based on these results, implications to the guidance program were established. |
