The statistical population of this research included All the multi-level students of the second elementary school of Khomein City in the academic year of 1401-1402 who were studying. The sample included 40 students who were selected in an accessible way and then randomly replaced in the experimental and control groups. Solomon's (1984) procrastination scale and Jones and Rudwalt's (1982) self-handicapping questionnaire were used to collect data. Finally, the data were analyzed using multivariate covariance analysis. The findings showed that by controlling the effect of the pre-test, there was a significant difference between the post-test of the experimental group and the control group in the levels of academic procrastination and self-handicapping. Therefore, it can be concluded that flip learning affects the levels of academic procrastination And the Self-Handicapping of multi-grade students of the second elementary school in Khomein City was effective
