Resumen

Este estudio investigó las relaciones entre la Tríada Oscura (maquiavelismo, narcisismo subclínico y psicopatía subclínica) y la procrastinación y deshonestidad académicas. Doscientos diez estudiantes universitarios españoles, con edades comprendidas entre los 18 y los 58 años, completaron las escalas Dirty Dozen, Academic Procrastination Scale-Short Form y una escala ad-hoc para evaluar la frecuencia de comportamientos académicos deshonestos. Se realizaron análisis de regresión jerárquica, controlando la edad y el sexo, se encontró que el maquiavelismo y el bajo narcisismo son predictores significativos de la procrastinación académica, mientras que el maquiavelismo es el único predictor significativo de la deshonestidad académica. El presente estudio contribuye a un mejor conocimiento de las causas de la procrastinación y la deshonestidad académicas.
