The objective of this research was to determine if academic self-concept and academic self-efficacy predict academic procrastination in university students from the La Libertad Region. The data of 386 university students of both sexes were analyzed through an associative strategy with a cross-sectional predictive design. The questionnaires used were the AF5 Self-Concept Scale (ECT), the EAPESA scale for self-concept and the EPA Procrastination scale. It was found that there is a statistically significant and practical relationship between the study variables (p <.01) and that the coefficient of determination R2 = .273 indicates that academic self-concept and academic self-efficacy explain 27.3% of the variance criterion of total academic procrastination of the variable. It is concluded that the coefficients β (-, 382, -, 201) indicate that academic self-concept and academic self-efficacy (predictor variables) significantly predict academic procrastination (criterion variable).
