Abstract-The current study aimed to examine the relationships between academic self-efficacy, the Big Five personality traits (extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness), and academic procrastination among undergraduate students. Two hundred and seven undergraduate students in Semarang participated in this study. A hundred and four were sophomores and 103 were third-year students. The results showed that academic self-efficacy and the Big Five personality traits predicted academic procrastination significantly (R=0. 815, F=65.874, p<0.01). Correlation analysis revealed that academic self-efficacy, extraversion, conscientiousness and neuroticism emerged as the predictors of the academic procrastination tendencies among undergraduate students. Neuroticism and extraversion had a positive significant relationship, while conscientiousness and academic self-efficacy had a negative significant association. Furthermore, the hypotheses about relationships between other personality traits (agreeableness and openness) with academic procrastination were not supported. Agreeableness and openness were not related to academic procrastination. Implications of academic self-efficacy and Big Five personality traits measures to the predictions of academic procrastination among undergraduate students are discussed.

Abstract-There have been so many effort have been done to reduce poverty. The poor has decreased. However, it is still remain vulnerable. The existence of economic turmoil, such as crop failure and rising fuel prices would quickly raise up poverty. The empowerment of the poor is done uniformly and pay less attention to the character of the poor, especially their the social psychology character.

The poor in Central Java has decreased, however it is still remain vulnerable. The existence of economic turmoil, such as crop failure and rising fuel prices would quickly raise up poverty.The high growth of economy sometimes ignoring the poor and marginalized people. Therefore, high growth of economy sometimes resulting an increase in inequality 1. The Increasing in inequality may have implications such as a Manuscript received November 19, 2013; revised February 20, 2014 raising in the rate of poverty, political instability and social instability as well as lower growth itself. Then, Central Java implements pro-poor, pro-jobs and pro-growth to address poverty. When the inequalities occur, it could mean that development does not in line with the concept of inclusive growth.
