This article examines procrastination among medical students and the main psychological factors influencing its development. The study is based on the analysis of modern scientific literature, as well as methods of generalization and comparative analysis. In addition, the results of a student questionnaire were used as an additional source of information. The analysis indicates that the main causes of procrastination include high levels of stress, decreased motivation, insufficient time management skills, and the distracting influence of social media. The findings highlight the importance of developing time management skills and strengthening psychological support systems for medical students.
