  • People procrastinate to avoid negative emotions associated with challenging tasks.

    “Their research demonstrated that people procrastinate to avoid negative emotions associated with challenging tasks, opting instead for immediately gratifying activities.”

    From Social Media Addiction and Procrastination in Peruvian University Students: Exploring the Role of Emotional Regulation and Age Moderation (2025) · cites this paper as Pychyl and Sirois [25]

  • This account of the role of negative self-evaluations in the expectancy-assessment process and subsequent self-regulation failure dovetails with the emotion regulation models of procrastination and with the proposed associations between negative affect and end-state thinking in perfectionistic concerns.

    “This account of the role of negative self-evaluations in the expectancy-assessment process and subsequent self-regulation failure dovetails with the emotion regulation models of procrastination (Pychyl & Sirois, 2016; Sirois & Pychyl, 2013), and with the proposed associations between negative affect and end-state thinking in perfectionistic concerns (Flett, Hewitt, Blankstein, & Gray,”

    From A Meta–Analytic and Conceptual Update on the Associations between Procrastination and Multidimensional Perfectionism (2017) · cites this paper as Pychyl & Sirois, 2016

  • For the chronic procrastinator, activation of negative self-evaluations that increase negative affect can trigger avoidant responses to the goal as a means of reducing mood and protecting self-esteem.

    “For the chronic procrastinator, activation of negative self-evaluations that increase negative affect can also trigger avoidant responses to the goal as a means of reducing mood and protecting self-esteem (Pychyl & Sirois, 2016; Sirois, 2004a; Sirois & Pychyl, 2013).”

  • Self-regulation failure via problems in managing setbacks and failures has been linked to perfectionism and procrastination individually within other domains, and may therefore also be relevant for understanding how perfectionistic concerns and perfectionistic strivings relate to procrastination within the health domain.

    “Self-regulation failure via problems in managing setbacks and failures (i.e., the discrepancy between current and desired states) have been linked to perfectionism and procrastination individually within other domains (e.g., Pychyl & Sirois, 2016; Sagar & Stoeber, 2009; Sirois et al., 2010), and may therefore also be relevant for understanding how perfectionistic concerns and perfectionist”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
