In academic circles, procrastination is a well-known, almost banal phenomenon. Students often postpone completing tasks and activities inherent in learning, despite the fact that they know that they will be worse off because of the delay. For some students, academic procrastination may be specific to a particular situation, for others it acquires the features of habit or predisposition (i.e. characteristic procrastination). Thus, the aim of the research is to examine modern approaches in the fight against procrastination.
The paper presented an example of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which is becoming more prominent psychotherapeutic method among other approaches of conversational therapy. CBT is a interim psychological treatment that helps to change a patient's behavior. It should be considered that CBT is nothing else than learning and implementing. Therefore, this would not have been possible without the cooperation of the students.
