In the peer-review journal article Deadline Rush: A Time Management Phenomenon Description [|König, Cornelius J] ; [|Kleinmann, Martin]. [|**The Journal of Psychology**] [|139. 1] (Jan 2005): 33-45 states that a typical time management phenomenon is the rush before a deadline. There observation in behavioral decision making research showed that people are likely not to work on a project with a deadline in the far future because they generally discount future outcomes. Only when the deadline is close are people likely to work. Students start to study just a few days before the exams. A deadline rush can be defined as a longer time period of nearly no behavior (e.g., nearly no studying) and then a sharp increase of behavior before the deadline. Nearly no work is done when the deadline is far, but much work is done directly before the deadline.
