The study aims to examine the role of perceived stress, social addiction, and negative emotions on procrastination among undergraduate students in Vietnam. The results among 1000 undergraduate students showed that perceived stress was positively associated with procrastination, social addiction, and negative emotions. In addition, students’ procrastination was positively and significantly influenced by both social addiction and negative emotions, which in turn substantially mediated the link between stress and procrastination. Moreover, the results revealed that students’ mindfulness moderated the influence of stress on both social addiction and negative emotions. This research offers significant contributions for academics and practitioners to lessen academic-related procrastination among undergraduate students.
