Abstract

To address the causes of wasting time that have or do not have an impact on students' academic achievement, this study was conducted utilizing quantitative research methods, alongside a variety of research methods, such as document research, an exploratory survey of 307 students, an official survey with 6,670 statistically valid student’s responses, interviews, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), scale reliability analysis, descriptive statistics, and inferential statistics. Consequently, all of the 11 causes of wasting time that belong to the two categories of objective and subjective causes are at the influential level. Whether in the group of objective or subjective causes, reasons related to the use of technology are the leading cause of wasting students' time. In addition, the study also found that there is a significant difference between student's academic results, with the main trend of students with fair academic performance having more wasted time when compared to groups of students with good and excellent grades. Therefore, to have good learning results, students need to study and practice time management skills to increase the efficiency of time use and avoid time-consuming factors.
