In this respect, Procrastination Assessment Scale-Student (PASS) was administered to a total of 448 students who were 149 (83 female; 66 male) high-school, 150 (80 female; 70 male) undergraduate and 148 (84 female; 64 male) graduate students. The average age was 15.5 years old (SD = .56) for High-school, 20.4 years old (SD = 1.71) for Undergraduate, and 25.5 years old (SD = 2.32) for Graduate students.
