Abstract:
The current study aimed to know the level of academic procrastination among secondary school students in
the city of Ouargla and to know the significance of the differences in the level of academic procrastination
according to gender, academic level, and academic specialization. After confirming its psychometric properties,
which was applied to the study sample estimated at 171 male and female students at the high school level of Al-
Qasr, C. Sherif Ali Mellah and Abdel Majid Boumada in Ouargla, the study concluded that the level of academic
sluggishness is low among secondary school students, and that there are no statistically significant differences
Academic procrastination is due to gender, academic level, and that there are statistically significant differences
in academic procrastination due to the academic specialization variable (scientific, literary) in favor of the
scientific specialization.
