The obtained data was analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), Pearson correlation tests, and multiple linear regression analysis.
Results: The results of Pearson correlation showed that the relationships between psychological hardiness and occupational procrastination (r = -0.316, P <0.001), and marital conflict and occupational procrastination (r = 0.511, P<0.001) were significant. The results of multiple linear regression showed that marital conflict (B = 0.347, P<0.001) was predictive of occupational procrastination and explained 27.8% of the variance of occupational procrastination in Shahrekord university staff.
