This study investigates the interrelationships between procrastination and academic performance among college students. Using a sample of 200 students from Trichy, the research examines how these factors correlate and whether demographic variables such as age, gender, degree level, and place of residence are associated with significant differences in these psychological and academic constructs. The results revealed a moderate negative correlation between procrastination and academic performance, while demographic analysis indicated that gender significantly influences procrastination levels, with males reporting higher scores.
