Abstract
Prokrastinasi akademik merupakan salah satu permasalahan yang sering dialami mahasiswa dalam menyelesaikan tugas kuliah dan dapat berkaitan dengan faktor psikologis, salah satunya rasa takut gagal (fear of failure). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh rasa takut gagal terhadap kebiasaan menunda tugas kuliah (prokrastinasi akademik) pada mahasiswa Universitas Airlangga. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain survei cross-sectional non-eksperimental. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan menggunakan teknik purposive sampling dengan kriteria mahasiswa aktif Universitas Airlangga yang memiliki pengalaman mengerjakan tugas kuliah. Dari 79 respons yang terkumpul, sebanyak 67 responden memenuhi kriteria dan digunakan sebagai sampel penelitian. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner dengan skala Likert lima poin. Instrumen rasa takut gagal diadaptasi dari Fear of Failure in Learning Scale, sedangkan instrumen prokrastinasi akademik diadaptasi dari Multidimensional Academic Procrastination Scale (MAPS-15). Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan uji validitas, reliabilitas, normalitas, linearitas, dan regresi linear sederhana dengan bantuan IBM SPSS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa seluruh 19 item rasa takut gagal dan 13 item prokrastinasi akademik dinyatakan valid. Instrumen juga menunjukkan reliabilitas yang baik dengan nilai Cronbach's Alpha masing-masing sebesar 0,804 dan 0,870. Hasil regresi linear sederhana menghasilkan persamaan Y = 14,404 + 0,377X dengan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,001 < 0,05. Hasil uji t juga menunjukkan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,001 < 0,05, sehingga rasa takut gagal berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap prokrastinasi akademik. Nilai R Square sebesar 0,160 menunjukkan bahwa rasa takut gagal menjelaskan 16,0% variasi prokrastinasi akademik, sedangkan 84,0% lainnya dapat berkaitan dengan faktor lain di luar model penelitian. Dengan demikian, semakin tinggi rasa takut gagal yang dirasakan mahasiswa, semakin tinggi pula kecenderungan mahasiswa untuk menunda tugas kuliah.References
