<![CDATA[ABSTRACT The high tendency of academic procrastination among students has become a serious concern because it has the potential to increase academic stress arising from academic demands and learning workload. This study aims to examine the influence of academic procrastination on academic stress among junior high school students. This research employs a correlational quantitative design with simple linear regression analysis as the data analysis method. Purposive sampling technique was used to select the sample, consisting of 73 students from grades 7 to 9 at a private junior high school in South Tangerang. Data were collected through questionnaires using the Academic Expectations Stress Inventory (AESI) developed by Ang & Huan (2006) and the General Procrastination Scale (GP Scale) developed by Ferrari (2015). The results indicate a significant effect of academic procrastination on academic stress (R = 0.289; p = 0.013), where academic procrastination accounts for 8.4% of the variance in students' academic stress. Thus, the higher the level of academic procrastination among students, the higher the academic stress they experience, especially when facing school assignments and exams.
