The
ever-increasing demands for a better and deeper understanding of the nature of
learning has urged researchers to examine the factors affecting the learning
process. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a model can be
formed on the ground of the structural relationship pattern between motivation,
procrastination and perfectionism. The participants consisted of 210 students
studying at a state university in İstanbul. As data collection tools, Academic
Motivation Scale, Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale and Aitken
Academic Procrastination Inventory were administered to the study group. Data
obtained were analysed using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 21.0 software program through
Structural Equation Modelling. Results have indicated that maladaptive
perfectionism, as is the case with procrastination, is affected by intrinsic
and extrinsic motivation as well as amotivation. On the other hand, adaptive
perfectionism is affected by intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. In the light
of the theoretical background, the suggested model was tested and after
necessary path analysis, it was revised and the structural relationship pattern
among motivation, procrastination and perfectionism was suggested as a model.
