The main objective of this research was to analyze the relationship between Academic procrastination and types of Academic motivation. Therefore, the Escala de Procrastinación Académica (EPA) and the Escala de Motivación Educativa (EME) were applied to a sample of 139 young students aged 18 to 28 (M=19.68; DE=1.98) from a private university in Lima, where 81 were women (58.3%) and 58 were men (41.7%). Likewise, the specific objectives were to compare the levels of Academic procrastination and types of Academic motivation according to the sex variable; as well as identifying the relationship between academic performance and both variables mentioned before.The results show significant and inverse correlations between Academic procrastination scores and the intrinsic motivation scores (to knowledge, achievement and stimulating experiences), Identified and Introjected regulation; as well as a significant and positive correlation with Amotivation. Regarding the first specific objective, significant and inverse correlations were found between academic performance and academic procrastination, as well as direct correlations with the types of Intrinsic motivation, Identified and Introjected regulation. In relation to the second and third specific objective, a correlation was found between procrastination and amotivation with a larger size in men, and they also have significantly higher scores in these variables, compared to women. The results are discussed taking into account the Theory of Self-Determination, the concept of self-regulation, factors associated with amotivation and measures of academic performance, all this considering the findings of this research and the revised literature.
