    Abstract
    When the frequency of Congess' bills production is plotted as a cumulative function across a congressional term, the result is a positively accelerated curve which is reminiscent of a fixed-interval scallop (Critchfield et al., 2004). The positively accelerating curve can be conceptualized as a feature of "procrastination." The present study attempts to replicate the Critchfield et al. study by applying the same method of analysis to the homework completion behavior of college students.
