At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was identified a declining tendency of overall rates of academic procrastination and at the same time increase in the number of carriers of mid and high levels of academic procrastination. The decline in the general rates of academic procrastination at the beginning of 2021 testifies to the adaptation processes experienced by students to the conditions of distance learning. It was documented that students’ academic procrastination is accompanied by a steady negative emotional tension. During the transition to distance learning, the intensity of students’ learning activity has increased, which altogether causes stress as one of the main reasons for the academic procrastination among future psychologists.
