Abstract

The study aims to examine the effectiveness of a life skills-based training program in reducing academic procrastination among a sample of high school students in the city of Ouargla. To achieve this objective, the quasi-experimental method was adopted, specifically the non-randomized control group design with pre- and post- testing. The study sample consisted of 30 first-year secondary school students (common core in Science and Technology), who were purposefully selected and equally divided into an experimental group and a control group. To accomplish the study’s objective, three instruments were utilized: the life skills-based training program, an academic procrastination scale developed by the researcher, and the "Bourahli 2021" Life Skills Scale, which was adapted and psychometrically validated by the researcher. Data analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25. The findings revealed that the program had a statistically significant effect in reducing academic procrastination among the high school students in both the post-test and follow-up measurements. The results were interpreted in light of the theoretical framework of the study.
