A new study from Developmental Psychology, a scientific journal, explores the negative effects of procrastination as we get older. It’s a bad habit that often begins in our early childhood years, but this batch of data suggests that it significantly intensifies as we age. How often do you procrastinate? Why do you do it? More importantly, what fuels this habit and how can we break it? Kristy Cameron chats with Caitlin Mahy, an Association Professor in Psychology at Brock University.
