Abstract
Revenge bedtime procrastination is a newly studied phenomenon in which individuals knowingly fail to go to bed at the intended time. Individuals engage in revenge bedtime procrastination even though this reduces their time to sleep in order to regain a sense of freedom they feel lacked throughout the day. This study investigates whether the amount of time college students spent revenge bedtime procrastinating is predicted by their lack of perceived control in daily life, and whether this effect is moderated by perceived social support. Participants filled out a short online survey including the Sense of Agency Scale and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. The results show a sample in which 95.4% of the 175 participants report that they have engaged in revenge bedtime procrastination. There was evidence that perceived lack of control in daily life predicts revenge bedtime procrastination, but no evidence of perceived social support moderating this effect. Keywords: revenge bedtime procrastination, perceived control, sense of agency, perceived social support
