Academic procrastination is a common behavior among high school students. This study aims to evaluate the direct and indirect effects of self-esteem on academic procrastination among high school students based on their general self-efficacy.

The following research conclusion is drawn: First, there is a significant positive correlation between self-esteem and general self-efficacy. Second, there is a significant negative correlation between self-esteem and academic procrastination. Third, general self-efficacy mediates the relationship between self-esteem and academic procrastination.
