Many university students are unable to complete their schoolwork in the designated time and choose to postpone doing it. This behavior can cause anxiety and influence their academic performance and responsibility. Objective: Determine if there is a relationship between procrastination and trait anxiety in first-year psychology students at the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega Private University, in Peru. Materials and Methods: The research was developed under a quantitative, non-experimental, transectional and correlational approach. The sample was made up of the 47 students enrolled in this academic year of this career. The information was collected using the Solomon and Rothblum academic procrastination scale questionnaire; as well as the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory proposed by Spielberger and Díaz. Results: 63.8% and 48.9% of the students have a medium level of procrastination and trait anxiety respectively. Furthermore, a weak positive correlation was determined (r=.111) where (p>0.05), which is not statistically significant. Conclusions: There is no relationship between procrastination and trait anxiety in this group of students.
