Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the impact of personality traits and emotional intelligence on predicting academic procrastination patterns among a sample of female students at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah. The researcher employed a descriptive correlational methodology to achieve the study objectives. The study sample consisted of 250 female students from various scientific, administrative, humanitarian, and health disciplines at King Abdulaziz University, selected randomly. The researcher utilized Abu Qouidar's (2022) Personality Traits Scale, Ben Amr's (2017) Emotional Intelligence Scale, and Faisal and Saleh's (2018) Academic Procrastination Patterns Scale in the study. The results revealed the most prevalent personality traits among the study sample, with the trait of agreeableness emerging as the most common. The findings also indicated a high level of emotional intelligence among the students. The most common academic procrastination pattern among the study sample was perfectionist procrastination. The results further demonstrated a correlation between personality traits and emotional intelligence. However, no significant correlation was found between personality traits and academic procrastination patterns, except for agreeableness, which exhibited a positive correlation with procrastination patterns. Dedication, on the other hand, showed a negative correlation with academic procrastination patterns. The remaining dimensions of personality traits were not correlated with academic procrastination patterns. Additionally, the results showed an inverse relationship between emotional intelligence and academic procrastination patterns. The findings suggested that certain personality traits (agreeableness, dedication) and emotional intelligence significantly contribute to predicting academic procrastination patterns among female students at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah.
