PROKRASTINASI PADA PESERTA PENDIDIKAN KARAKTER DAN FAKTOR-FAKTOR PENYEBABNYA
Abstract: Procrastination is a
kind of failure on self-regulation to accomplish a task based on a voluntary
intention. Although he or she understands the consequence, this kind of
behavior occurs repeatedly. This kind of harmful behavior frequently occurred
among the IAYP (International Award for Young People) participants. IAYP is a
kind of character building program. The program requires participants to
accomplish three activities i.e. sport, skill, and community service once per
week during 24 weeks (either for bronze and silver level). This program trained
participant to have internal motivation. Hence, the objective of this research
is to discuss the causal factors of the procrastinate behavior on one IAYP
participant. Currently he is still at the bronze level and frequently performs
procrastination of those three activities. This preliminary research revealed
that the external and internal factors are the reason for procrastination. The
interesting external factor which contributes is the subject's perception about
the IAYP leader. The leader is perceived as not having empathy for
participant's inability to conform the IAYP schedule. The subject is likely to
ask an excuse for being procrastinate. This result mirrored that the
fundamental reason for being procrastination is subject’s inability to build
internal motivation (internal factor).
