| Sumario: | Time management and fluid intelligence have been studied in relation to academic success. Traditionally, fluid intelligence has been measured using performance tests (also called objective tests) meanwhile time management has been measured using self-reports. However, self-reports can be affected by bias and sometimes participant’s responses are inaccurate. To address this limitation, we employed objective tests to measure both fluid intelligence (using the TRASI test) and time management (using the My Schedule test) to investigate their relation to academic grades. The sample consisted of 120 university students. Results indicate a positive relation between time management and fluid intelligence. Fluid intelligence is positively related to grades in mathematics. Time management is positively related to mathematics, physics and chemistry grades. While the present study does not establish causality, the results complement prior research and underscore the significance of time management and fluid intelligence in the academic context |
