dc.description.abstract	The present study aimed at determining whether a significant relationship exists between impulsiveness and procrastination. For this purpose a sample of 100 participants between the ages of 18-24 years was taken. Data collection was done using a consent form, ademographic information form, UPPS-P Impulsive Behavior Scale (UPPS-P) (Whiteside & Lynam; 2001) and a Tuckman Procrastination Scale (Tuckman, 1990), all of which were converted to online self-administered questionnaires. Results obtained were analyzed usingStatistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The data revealed a positive correlation (r = 0.45) thus verifying the hypothesis. The observed positive correlation between the twovariables depicts that indeed those individuals who score high on the scale of impulsiveness are more likely to score high on the scale of procrastination as well. It shows that the twofactors co-vary and impulsiveness has a positive relationship with procrastination.	en_US
