This study investigates natural clusters of people in terms of General Procrastination and the sub-factors of Active Procrastination (outcome satisfaction, preference for pressure, intentional decisions to procrastinate, and the ability to meet deadlines) and what differenes are observed among the identified clusters of subjects with respect to problem-solving styles. The results of cluster analysis conducted on a sample of 359 undergraduates have led us to identify three clusters of students: the Non-Procrastination group, the Passive-Procrastination group, and the Active-Procrastination group. Their differences in problem-solving styles have turned out. The Non-Procrastination group has demonstrated better functioning in problem situations than two procrastination groups. The Active-Procrastination group in regarding problem situations felt less helpless, more creative style, more confidence and more likely to use an approach style than Passive-Procrastination group.
