The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of self-determination skills training on academic satisfaction, intelligence beliefs, and academic enthusiasm in female students with academic procrastination. The research method was a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group. The statistical population of the study included female students with academic procrastination in the second year of high school in District 1 of Ardabil in the academic year 2025-2026, of which 39 were selected by purposive sampling and randomly assigned to the experimental group (n=19) and the control group (n=20). To collect data, the procrastination assessment scale – students (PASS, Solomon & Rothblum, 1984), emotional self-efficacy scale (ESES, Beverley et al, 2008), theory of intelligence scale (ITIS, Abd-El-Fattah & Yates, 2006) and questionnaire for academic achievement (QAA, fredericks et al, 2004) were used. The experimental group received 8 90-minute sessions and one self-determination skills training session per week. Data analysis was performed using the multivariate analysis of covariance method. The findings showed that, after controlling for the pre-test effect, there was a significant difference at the 0.01 level between the mean post-test scores of academic satisfaction, intelligence belief, and academic engagement in the two groups. Based on the results, self-determination skills training increased academic satisfaction, intelligence beliefs, and academic engagement in students with academic procrastination.
