Negative Impact of Part-Time Work on Adolescent Adjustment: Evidence from a Longitudinal Study.
Steinberg, Laurence; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v29 n2 p171-80 Mar 1993
Before working, adolescents who later worked more than 20 hours per week were less engaged in school and granted more autonomy by their parents than other adolescents. Working more than 20 hours per week further disengaged adolescents from school, increased delinquency and drug use, furthered autonomy, and diminished self-reliance. (BC)
