In addition, gender differences were explored across academic procrastination, cognitive failure, and life stress. The sample consisted of 300 fourth-year undergraduate students from the College of Education of Kafrelsheikh University in Egypt, (150) males and 150 females at the mean (21.92) years old, and standard deviation (2.32) during the 2017/2018 academic year. Measures used include Academic Procrastination, Cognitive Failure, and Life Stress scales created by the researcher. By using the appropriate statistical methods to analyze the data, positive statistically significant relationships among academic procrastination, cognitive failure, as well as life stress were found.
