Abstract

The aim of the present study is to study the effectiveness of group hope therapy on academic procrastination and self-regulation among female high school student learning. A control group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental research design was used in the study. The study population consists of approximately 11000 female high school students in Mashhad, in the academic year of 2017-2018. From the population, 30 students were selected by multistage cluster random sampling method and assigned randomly to two equal groups (experimental group (n=15) and control group (n=15)). The experimental group received 8 sessions and two sessions per week of hope therapy (each session lasted for 90 minutes) based on Snyder's method (2000, as cited in Bahari, 2014). Each two groups completed the questionnaires of Procrastination Assessment Scale for Students (PASS; Solomon & Rothblum, 1984) and self-regulatory learning strategies (Pintrich & De Groot, 1990) as a pre-test and post-test while a period of one month follow-up taken to complete the questioners. The data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA model. The findings showed a significant difference between experimental and control groups on the variables of academic procrastination and self-regulated learning of female students (p < 0/01). According to the findings it can be suggested that using hope therapy in the learning process can decrease the academic procrastination and increase the self- regulated learning in students and therefore led to academic.
