==Description==
[[Procrastination]] refers to the counterproductive deferment of [[actions]] or [[tasks]] to a later time. [[Psychologists]] often cite such [[behavior]] as a [[mechanism]] for coping with the [[anxiety]] associated with starting or completing any task or [[decision]]. Schraw, Wadkins, and Olafson have proposed three [[criteria]] for a [[behavior]] to be classified as procrastination: it must be counterproductive, needless, and delaying.
