Attitudes strengthen people’s motivation to learn a foreign language (Delfín, 2007), and procrastination, which involves unjustified delaying of activities, causes negative consequences in completing academic tasks postponement of responsibilities (Rodríguez & Clariana, 2017). The design was correlational, and the sample consisted of 55 students learning English. The instruments were the Attitudes towards English language learning questionnaire and the academic procrastination questionnaire. According to the results, evidence shows that there is a positive median relationship between the variables, leading us to conclude that despite having positive attitudes towards learning English, procrastinating behavior does not diminish. The results of this study could be utilized in bilingual programs, or those could also be utilized to implement curricula in language programs at schools or universities. The idea is that higher education institutions include, as mandatory, the instruction of English as a global language. 2021 artículo científico 0121-5469 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=80483049002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=804 Revista Colombiana de Psicología application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revista Colombiana de Psicología (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.30 |
