Temporal focus latent profiles and their relation to life satisfaction and procrastination among Chinese college students
Temporal focus refers to individuals' attention allocation across the past, present, and future. Previous studies have linked temporal focus with well-being, life satisfaction, risk-taking behaviors, and procrastination. This study involved 649 university students (M = 20.44 years, 54.4 % male). Latent profile analysis identified three temporal focus profiles: weak temporal focus, balanced focus, and hypertemporal focus. Multinomial logistic regression showed that gender (p < 0.01), city/town/rural place of residence (p < 0.05), and student leadership status (p < 0.05) significantly predicted profile membership. Temporal focus profiles were significantly associated with life satisfaction and procrastination, with the balanced and hypertemporal focus reporting higher life satisfaction and lower procrastination compared to the weak temporal focus. These findings may inform the development of culturally tailored school-based practices to enhance life satisfaction and reduce procrastination through temporal focus.
期刊介绍:
Personality and Individual Differences is devoted to the publication of articles (experimental, theoretical, review) which aim to integrate as far as possible the major factors of personality with empirical paradigms from experimental, physiological, animal, clinical, educational, criminological or industrial psychology or to seek an explanation for the causes and major determinants of individual differences in concepts derived from these disciplines. The editors are concerned with both genetic and environmental causes, and they are particularly interested in possible interaction effects.
