description This study examined the relationships among the Dart Triad (machiavellianism, subclinical narcissism and subclinical psychopathy) and academic procrastination and academic dishonesty. Two hundred and ten participants, ranging in age from 18 to 51 years., completed the Dirty Dozen, the Academic Procrastination Scale-Short Form and an academic dishonesty ad hoc scale designed to evaluate the frequency of engagement in academic dishonesty behaviours. Using hierarchical regression analyses, controlling for age and gender, it was found that machiavellianism and low narcissism were significative predictors of academic procrastination; while machiavellianism was the only significative predictor of academic dishonesty. The present study contributes to a better understanding of the causes of procrastination and academic dishonesty.

Este estudio investigó las relaciones entre la Tríada Oscura (maquiavelismo, narcisismo subclínico y psicopatía subclínica) y la procrastinación y deshonestidad académicas. Doscientos diez estudiantes universitarios españoles, con edades comprendidas entre los 18 y los 58 años, completaron las escalas Dirty Dozen, Academic Procrastination Scale-Short Form y una escala ad-hoc para evaluar la frecuencia de comportamientos académicos deshonestos. Se realizaron análisis de regresión jerárquica, controlando la edad y el sexo, se encontró que el maquiavelismo y el bajo narcisismo son predictores significativos de la procrastinación académica, mientras que el maquiavelismo es el único predictor significativo de la deshonestidad académica. El presente estudio contribuye a un mejor conocimiento de las causas de la procrastinación y la deshonestidad académicas.
