The study aims to examine the effect of academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination on plagiarism behavior in students. The population of this research is the students of Walisongo State Islamic University Semarang from 2 nd to 12 th semester. Sampling was carried out by using the stratified sampling method, and 388 students were obtained. Data were collected using three scales: the plagiarism behavior scale, the academic self-efficacy scale, and the academic procrastination scale. Moreover, the data collected was analyzed using multiple regression analysis techniques. The result of the data analysis showed that academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination simultaneously influence the behavior of plagiarism. The higher the academic self-efficacy and the lower the academic procrastination, the lower the plagiarism behavior, conversely the lower the academic self-efficacy and the higher the academic procrastination, the higher the plagiarism behavior. The contribution of academic self-efficacy variables and academic procrastination simultaneously in explaining plagiarism variables was 13%.
