Abstract
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the factors that contribute to academic self-handicapping among students of the College of Basic Education in the State of Kuwait.

The results of stepwise regression analysis revealed that academic procrastination, self-compassion, avoidance goal orientation, self-esteem, and mastery goal orientation contribute to academic self-handicapping, while performance goal orientation did not show contribute to academic self-handicapping, and academic procrastination was the strongest predictor of academic self-disruption. The study recommends conducting more studies to investigate the contribution of performance orientation to academic self-handicapping.
