Abstract

This research is aimed at comparing academic procrastination and academic self-regulation in male students with epilepsy and normal students of 12-16 years old in South Khorasan province. This research is a causal-comparative study. The population includes all the male students with epilepsy and normal students of 12-16 years old in South Khorasan province in the academic year 2016-2017. Out of the mentioned population, 30 students with epilepsy were selected by convenience sampling, and 30 normal students were selected by simple random sampling. The samples were homogenized in terms of GPA and grade. The research tools were academic procrastination scale (Solomon and Ruth Bloom) and self-regulation questionnaire. The results of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) for the hypotheses showed that there is a significant difference between academic procrastination and self-regulation in students with epilepsy and normal students (P≤0/05); i.e. students with epilepsy had a higher level of academic procrastination and a lower level of academic self-regulation compared to their normal peers. The findings suggest that since epilepsy is accompanied with cognitive, emotional, and academic deficits, teachers and counselors should pay attention to academic procrastination and self-regulation among students.
