The Relationship of Perceived Stress and Academic Performance to Perceived Control of Time

Abstract

The volume of literature that is available discusses the positive effects of time management, but little empirical research has been undertaken to support these claims (Macan 1994). A sample of 164 business students was used to determine the relationships between perceived control of time and academic performance as well as stress. Results showed significant relationships among the study variables providing initial support for some of the claims of time management. Study implications and direction for future research are also discussed.
