La Procrastinación Académica es una variable que afecta la eficacia del sistema educativo al influir en la retención y permanencia regular del alumno en las instituciones educativas; así mismo, afecta el rendimiento académico y el bienestar psicológico del propio alumno. El objetivo de esta investigación fue establecer las evidencias de validez y confiabilidad que respaldan el uso de la Escala de Procrastinación Académica en una población estudiantil mexicana. Para el logro de este objetivo se aplicó dicha escala a una muestra de 361 alumnos de educación media superior de un Centro de Bachillerato Tecnológico e Industrial y de Servicios de la ciudad de Durango, en Durango, México. A partir de los resultados obtenidos en el Análisis Factorial Exploratorio y el Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio se eliminaron dos ítems de la escala y la versión resultante mostró mejor ajuste que la versión de 12 ítems; en ambos análisis factoriales se confirmó la estructura bifactorial de la escala y se obtuvo un nivel de confiablidad aceptable.
