Ushbu tadqiqotning maqsadi — talabalarining vaqtni boshqarish
ko‘nikmalari bilan ularning o‘quv yutuqlari o‘rtasidagi bog‘liqlikni aniqlashdir. Vaqtni
boshqarish juda muhim bo‘lib, u insonning umumiy ishlashi va yutuqlariga bevosita
ta’sir qilishi mumkin. Biroq, bularning barchasi insonlarning kundalik hayotiga mos
tarzda vaqtni qanday boshqarishiga bog‘liq. Yaxshi muhit va sharoitlar, shuningdek,
ustozlar tomonidan berilayotgan samarali ma’ruzalar, talabalarning ijobiy natijalarga

erishishiga yordam beradi. Shunga qaramay, talabalar tomonidan vaqtni boshqarish
ularni yaxshi talaba bo‘lishga yo‘naltiruvchi asosiy omillardan biri hisoblanadi.
Samarali vaqtni boshqarish talabaning muvaffaqiyati uchun juda muhimdir. Biroq,
ba’zi talabalar vaqtni boshqarish ko‘nikmalariga ega emaslar va bu ularning hayoti
hamda o‘qishiga salbiy ta’sir ko‘rsatadi. Oliy ta’lim muassasalaridagi talabalar
tomonidan vaqtning sarflanishi ularning kundalik faoliyati va odatlariga bog‘liq.
Bundan tashqari, vaqtni qanday boshqarish ularning stress darajasiga ham ta’sir qiladi,
chunki ular topshiriqlarni bajara olishlari va shaxsiy yutuqlarga erishishlari kerak
bo‘ladi. Shu munosabat bilan, ushbu tadqiqotda Toshkent Amaliy Fanlar Universiteti
talabalaridan ma’lumotlar to‘plandi va ularning vaqtni boshqarish orqali o‘quv
yutuqlari darajasiga qanday ta’sir qilishlari tahlil qilindi.

Abstract.
The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between
students' time management skills and their academic performance. Time management
is critically important as it directly influences an individual's overall efficiency and
success. However, this greatly depends on how effectively individuals manage their
time in daily life. A supportive environment and effective lectures delivered by
instructors help students achieve positive outcomes. Nevertheless, time management
remains one of the key factors that guide students toward academic success. Efficient
time management is essential for student achievement. However, some students lack
these skills, which negatively affects both their academic and personal lives. Time
usage among university students is shaped by their daily routines and habits.
Additionally, time management impacts their stress levels, as they are required to
complete assignments and achieve personal goals. Accordingly, this research collected
data from students at the Tashkent University of Applied Sciences and analyzed how
their time management influences their academic success.

1. INTRODUCTION
In the modern world, time is considered an infinite and usable resource. It helps
instill the concept of time in organizations. All material and human resources owned
by organizations may change or develop over time, but the only asset that cannot be
altered is time itself. The secret to success in life is paying enough attention to
effectively managing and planning this resource equally given to everyone. The rising
expectations for the knowledge and skills of modern employees have also increased
the need for time planning. Success in social life is achieved through effective and
productive work, which is only possible through time management. Today, the
competitive environment trains individuals, even from school age, to plan and manage
time. Competitive demands force organizations and leaders to use time effectively.
Time management plays an important role in improving students' academic
performance. Every student must have the ability to manage time: this means setting
goals and priorities, using planning methods, and being organized. This can only be
achieved through self-motivation. Activities in which today’s university students
participate often hinder their academic results. Due to poor time planning, they fall
behind. This research helps analyze the positive or negative effects of time
management on academic achievement. It provides insights for decision-making on
how to use time efficiently. There is no single correct way to manage time, but by
understanding ourselves well, we can determine how to manage our time. This topic is
being discussed on various platforms, and students’ attitudes and behaviors towards
time are being studied in educational institutions.
In developing countries, problems encountered during the educational process
provide researchers with opportunities for new explorations. Previous research has
shown that time management affects students’ academic results. Nevertheless, many
students do not pay enough attention to this relationship due to a lack of awareness
about the importance of time in education. In higher education, study schedules must

be well planned, implemented, and monitored. Proper time management also aids in
developing cost-reducing educational policies.
The persistence of this issue – i.e., the lack of sufficient data on the relationship
between time management and academic results, and the difficulty in collecting such
data – highlights the need for special attention to time management in modern
education systems. This study also investigates students’ effectiveness in managing
time and its impact on their academic outcomes.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
Many studies confirm the impact of time management on human life, especially
its importance in education. In today’s world, people can successfully manage their
lives by planning and organizing their daily activities. The key to this success is
managing time properly and efficiently. Research shows that differences exist in time
management skills among teachers and students. When students apply effective time
management strategies, it positively affects their grades, stress levels, and overall well-
being.
For instance, a study in the UK found that students with high-level time
management skills had significantly better academic outcomes. How students plan
their time, determine priorities, and their discipline in using time are crucial factors in
academic success. Moreover, students who plan their time in personally favorable and
effective ways are observed to perform better in academic activities, preparation
quality, and grades.
Additionally, other studies emphasize that time management plays an essential
role not only in academic success but also in ensuring a balanced personal life. A study
in Egypt found that students reduced stress and found more time for rest through time
management. This increased their motivation and self-confidence. As a result, effective
time management positively affects students’ overall quality of life.
Students with poor time management skills are usually prone to procrastination.
This leads to the development of procrastination syndrome, increasing stress, lowering
academic results, and decreasing self-esteem. Therefore, many universities and
educational institutions have started offering time management training for students.
Through such training, students learn to plan effectively, prioritize tasks, and allocate
time correctly.
Studies also show a connection between time management and personal traits. For
example, self-regulation, discipline, motivation, and initiative play a vital role in time
management. By developing these skills, students can succeed not only academically
but also professionally. Moreover, acquiring time management techniques early in life
lays the foundation for future success.

3. RESEARCH METHOD
This research was conducted using a descriptive method to identify how
students manage their time and the relevance of time management. A questionnaire
method was used as the research model, through which students’ strategies for
managing their time and its impact on academic life were studied.
3.1. Research Sample
The study was conducted in the 2025 academic year among 1st to 4th-year
undergraduate students studying in the Faculty of Education (Primary Education and
Sports Department) at Tashkent University of Applied Sciences. A total of 292 students
(124 female and 168 male) participated voluntarily in the research.
3.2. Data Collection Tool
The study utilized the "Student Time Management Skills Assessment
Questionnaire," developed by Britton and Tesser (1991). The questionnaire was
adapted into Uzbek and reviewed for cultural and contextual suitability. It consists of
18 statements rated on a 5-point Likert scale (from 1 – “never” to 5 – “always”). It
evaluates students’ time management levels across three indicators: time planning,
time valuing, and procrastination. Some statements are reverse-coded.
3.3. Data Analysis
The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean, standard
deviation) to identify general trends. Test analyses were used to determine differences
between two variables. Demographic variables such as gender, academic year, and
sports activity were also considered during analysis.
4. RESEARCH RESULTS
This section analyzes data collected from 292 students in the Faculty of
Education, Department of Primary Education and Sports, at Tashkent University of
Applied Sciences. The results are presented under the following subtopics:
4.1. Students’ Time Management Levels
Results show that students' overall time management level is average. The mean
score for time planning was 3.41 (±0.74), time valuing 3.65 (±0.67), and
procrastination 2.48 (±0.81). These results indicate that students pay more attention to
valuing time but face difficulties in planning and especially in procrastination.
4.2. Gender Differences
Analysis revealed no statistically significant gender differences in time
management levels (p > 0.05). However, female students had slightly higher scores in
time planning and valuing, while male students had higher procrastination levels.
4.3. Differences by Academic Year
Significant differences were found in time management skills among students
from 1st to 4th year (p < 0.05). Especially, senior students (3rd–4th year) had higher
scores in time planning and valuing than lower-year students.

4.4. Impact of Sports Activity
There was also a significant difference between students who regularly engaged
in sports and those who did not (p < 0.05). Students involved in sports showed better
efficiency in time management, particularly in valuing and planning time. This
suggests that sports help develop discipline and a structured lifestyle.
5. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
This study showed that students in the Faculty of Education at Tashkent
University of Applied Sciences have an average level of time management skills.
Although students showed a positive attitude toward valuing time, they face challenges
in planning and especially in procrastination. This indicates that time management
skills are not fully developed.
Regarding gender differences, although female students had slightly higher scores
in planning and valuing time, no statistically significant difference was found in overall
time management levels. These findings align with previous research, suggesting that
gender may not significantly influence time management skills.
Time management skills were observed to improve with academic year
progression. Senior students were more effective in planning and valuing time
compared to junior students, suggesting that experience during the education process
enhances time management skills.
Additionally, students engaged in sports had higher time management scores.
These findings indicate that sports positively influence personal discipline, planning
ability, and effective time distribution.
In conclusion, although students demonstrated some positive time management
indicators, significant shortcomings were found in procrastination and planning.
Educational institutions can support students in this area by promoting time
management training, seminars, and encouraging sports activities. Teaching students
to manage time effectively plays a vital role in their academic success and personal
development.
