Procrastination is a form of self-regulation failure characterized by the
irrational delay of tasks despite potentially negative consequences. Previous
research on procrastination was mainly conducted in academic settings, oftentimes
combined with a focus on individual differences. As a consequence, scholarly
knowledge about how situational factors affect procrastination in work settings
is still scarce. Drawing on job stress literature, we assumed that work
characteristics go along with cognitive appraisals of the work situation as a
challenge and/or hindrance, that these cognitive appraisals affect employees'
self-regulation effort to overcome inner resistances, and that self-regulation
effort should in turn be related to workplace procrastination. In our study, we
focused on three specific work characteristics that we expected to trigger both
challenge and hindrance appraisal simultaneously: time pressure, problem solving,
and planning and decision-making. We hypothesized serial indirect effects of
these work characteristics on workplace procrastination via cognitive appraisal
and self-regulation processes that unfold within individuals over short periods
of time. Consequently, we conducted a diary study with three measurement
occasions per workday over a period of 12 days. Overall, 762 day-level datasets
from 110 employees were included in Bayesian multilevel structural equation
modeling (MSEM; controlled for sleep quality and occupational self-efficacy). Our
results revealed negative serial indirect effects of all three work
characteristics on workplace procrastination via increased challenge appraisal
and subsequently reduced self-regulation effort. Further, our results showed a
positive serial indirect effect of time pressure (but not of problem solving or
planning and decision making) on workplace procrastination via increased
hindrance appraisal and subsequently increased self-regulation effort. Overall,
our study showed that work characteristics are linked to workplace
procrastination via within-person processes of cognitive appraisal and
self-regulation. Because not all work characteristics triggered hindrance
appraisal, we argue that it may make sense to further differentiate challenge
stressors in the future. Moreover, cognitive appraisals affected self-regulation
effort only on the within-person level. On the between-person level
self-regulation effort was strongly negatively related with occupational
self-efficacy. Thus, we conclude that depending the perspective on
procrastination (e.g., differential psychology perspective vs. situational
perspective) different variables will be considered relevant to explain the
emergence of procrastination.
