Abstract
Procrastination is a prevalent issue among university students and leads to long-term negative impacts on academic performance as well as mental health and quality of life. This paper investigated StudyTracker, a self-tracking digital application (app) that we developed for university students to use to track their study sessions. The app provided feedback to the student in the form of text and charts. We investigated the impact that StudyTracker had on procrastination habits, and explored how students interpreted their feedback data from the app. Results indicated that both the control group (N=9) and the experimental group (N=8) experienced a significant decrease in procrastination scores, however there was no significant difference between the two groups. The design implications of our findings are discussed.
