Abstract
Background. Many studies suggested that academic procrastination is particularly prevalent among learners at the university level. Despite that, empirical data on the interactions between academic procrastination and, respectively, learners’ attitudes towards cheating (AtC), absenteeism, and learning achievement, are either generally inconclusive or non-existent, especially in the English as Foreign Language (EFL) literature. Hence, it could be worthwhile to conduct a study contemplating these issues in the Indonesian EFL context, home to one of the largest EFL learners in the world. Purpose. The present study was conducted to investigate the academic procrastination of Indonesian EFL learners at university level and the interactions of these learners’ procrastination with their AtC, absenteeism, and second/foreign language (L2) achievement. Method. The study employed an online survey method and 164 learners from non-English departments participated in this study. Results. Through descriptive statistics, it was found that the participants reported a moderate level of procrastination in English class. Furthermore, this study found that learners’ procrastination significantly and positively correlated with their AtC and absenteeism. This indicated the more learners procrastinated, the higher their approval toward cheating behaviours and the more likely they were absent in the English class. The predictive power of learners’ procrastination was at 16.4% on AtC and at 8.3% on absenteeism. Moreover, the study also found a significant, negative, and moderate relationship between learners’ procrastination and their L2 achievement with learners’ procrastination being able to predict 16.5% of the total variance in L2 achievement.
