Goldberg, Wendy A.; And Others
Child Development, v67 n4 p1512-27 Aug 1996
Examined mothers' total weekly work hours and psychological work involvement in relation to children's achievement behaviors and mothers' parenting. Subjects were 105 middle-class children and their mothers. Results indicated that high numbers of weekly work hours were associated with poorer teacher ratings of children's grades, school work habits, and aspects of personality conducive to achievement.
