This pilot study pursued two aims. The first was to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a Web-based acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention to reduce academic procrastination among university students. The second aim was to test the effectiveness of the intervention on procrastination and committed actions. The sample was comprised of Canadian university students ( = 36) that participated in the intervention between September 2016 and April 2017. The study relied on a prepost research design. The intervention appears feasible, acceptable, and valuable to students. A significant reduction in procrastination and a significant improvement in committed actions were found between pre and postintervention. The effect sizes for these results were medium. Results provide preliminary support for the feasibility and effectiveness of a Web-based ACT intervention for academic procrastination. Results also highlight some aspects that need to be improved for further development.
本研究旨在实现两个目标。第一个目标是调查基于网络的接受与承诺疗法(ACT)干预对于减少大学生学业拖延的可行性和可接受性。第二个目标是检验该干预措施对于拖延和承诺行为的有效性。该样本由 2016 年 9 月至 2017 年 4 月参与该干预措施的加拿大大学生( = 36)组成。本研究依赖于预前后测的研究设计。研究表明,该干预措施对学生来说是可行的、可接受的和有价值的。在干预前后,拖延的情况显著减少,承诺行为显著改善。这些结果的效应大小为中等。研究结果初步支持了基于网络的 ACT 干预对于学业拖延的可行性和有效性。结果还突出了进一步发展需要改进的一些方面。
