Abstract :The objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between undergraduate students\\\' perceptions of academic self-discipline and their levels of quiet quitting. The study was conducted with 312 students pursuing their studies at higher education in-stitutions in the Tekirdağ and Istanbul provinces. The Academic Self-Discipline Scale, developed by Şal (2022) and adapted into Turkish by Erduran Tekin & Şal (2023), and the quiet quitting Scale, developed by Savaş and Turan (2023), were employed as data collection instruments in the research, which was designed in accordance with the relational survey model. The findings of the study indicated that undergraduate stu-dents exhibited high levels of academic self-discipline, while their levels of quiet quit-ting were at a medium level. Furthermore, the study revealed a negative yet moderate and significant association between academic self-discipline and quiet quitting levels among undergraduate students. The regression analysis demonstrated that undergradu-ate students\\\' academic self-discipline perceptions were a notable predictor of their quiet quitting levels, thereby distinguishing the study from existing literature. In alignment with the findings of the research, recommendations were put forth with the aim of reducing the prevalence of silent resignation among undergraduate students and enhancing their academic self-discipline.
