Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between part-time employment and academic success among university students in the Netherlands and to examine whether this relationship is moderated by age, gender, and being an international student. The study included 276 participants, 76% of whom were female. Data were collected using self-report measures. Using simple and multiple linear regression with interaction terms, it was found that part-time employment has a negative impact on academic success. No moderating effect of age, gender, or being an international student was found. These findings suggest that part- time employment may be a factor that contributes to lower academic performance among university students in the Netherlands. Implications for higher education institutions and policymakers, as strategies to support students who work part-time are discussed.
