Genetic relations among procrastination, impulsivity, and goal-management ability: implications for the evolutionary origin of procrastination.

Psychological science - 1 Jun 2014

Abstract excerpt

Previous research has revealed a moderate and positive correlation between procrastination and impulsivity. However, little is known about why these two constructs are related. In the present study, we used behavior-genetics methodology to test three predictions derived from an evolutionary account that postulates that procrastination arose as a by-product of impulsivity: (a) Procrastination is heritable, (b) the...
