What Do We Know About Time Management? A Review of the Literature and a Psychometric Critique of Instruments Assessing Time Management

نویسنده

  • Laurie-Ann M. Hellsten
چکیده

Lack of time is a common complaint in western society. In response, there has been a proliferation of “... books, articles, and seminars on time management, along with their assertions, prescriptions and anecdotes” (Macan, 1994, p. 383). But what exactly is time management? Despite the epidemic of time management training programs (Quirk, 1989), there is currently a lack of agreement about the definition of time management and a dearth of literature summarizing time management across disciplines. Furthermore, Hellsten (2005) has argued that there is a lack of a theoretical model of time management. Although selfreport instruments purporting to examine time management exist in several disciplines, to date, there has been no published psychometric review or comparison of these instruments for assessing generic time management.
