This study explored internet addiction and peer influence as predictors of academic
procrastination among undergraduate Education students in a federal university in Anambra State. The research adopted a quantitative research (descriptive-correlational) design. The population comprised all the students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka for the 2023/2024 Academic Session. The sample size of 640 was drawn using convenient sampling. The Internet Addiction Questionnaire (IAQ), Peer Influence Questionnaire (PIQ) and Academic Procrastination Questionnaire (APQ) were used for data collection. Experts in the Department of Educational Foundations, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka validated the instruments. The reliability coefficient was obtained using Cronbach Alpha which yielded a reliability index of 0.76, 0.79 and 0.90 for IAQ, PIQ and APQ, respectively. Data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics were used to answer research questions one to three while inferential statistics, that is, the simple correlation analysis was used to answer research questions four to six while Simple Regression Analysis was used to test the hypotheses. The findings indicated that internet addiction and peer influence positively predicted academic procrastination separately and jointly, among university students. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended among others, that students should invest their time wisely and concentrate on their academics, rather than spend much time on internet platforms
for other purposes.
