Singh, Kusum; Ozturk, Mehmet
Journal of Educational Research, v94 n2 p67-74 Nov-Dec 2000
Examined the effect of part-time work intensity on high school mathematics and science coursework completed and its indirect effect on 12th grade achievement. Longitudinal data from a nationally representative sample indicated that there was a significant negative effect of part-time work intensity on coursework. The indirect effect on 12th-grade achievement was larger than the direct effect. (SM)
