Summary/Abstract: The primary aim of this study was to examine the role of self-efficacy perception in the effect of organizational support perceived by employees on their academic procrastination behaviors. Initially; the variables of organizational support, academic procrastination and self-efficacy were examined. Afterwards, the effect of organizational support on academic procrastination and the role of self-efficacy in this relationship were investigated. The data was collected via survey technique from 228 research assistants working at Erzurum Atatürk University in 2015 and the data was analyzed with appropriate methods. The results showed a positive relationship between organizational support and self-efficacy perception while a negative relationship was observed between organizational support and academic procrastination behavior. Additionally, self-efficacy perception was found to be negatively related to academic procrastination behavior. Finally, self-efficacy was found to have a full mediating role on the relationship between perceived organizational support and academic procrastination behavior.
