Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to analyze the relationship between procrastination and life satisfaction among young adults from a multicultural perspective. For this, a sample of 90 young adults was collected with an even ratio of 30 individuals each from India, UK and USA respectively. The tools employed for the purpose of data collection were: Lay’s General Procrastination Scale (1986), and Satisfaction with Life Scale (1985). The findings indicate a negative relationship between procrastination and life satisfaction in all the three countries, with no significant relationship being found between the two variables in India and the UK. Whereas, in the USA, a significant relationship was found to exist between procrastination and life satisfaction. Further statistical analysis also indicates a difference on the level of life satisfaction among young adults in all the three countries, with no significant difference on the level of procrastination in the same.
