Abstract
An increasing number of students use part-time employment to alleviate their financial pressure. For quite some time there have been questions if part-time employment has an influence on academic performance. The study analyzed results from a survey of 276 students in the Netherlands using a linear regression analysis in SPSS. Results indicate that part-time employed students have worse academic performance in regards to non-employed students. The relationship between term-time employment and well-being has not been found. The relationship between student activities and academic performance did not have significant results, but more active students did have a better well-being in comparison with less active students. The amount of student activities did not have an influence on the relationship between part-time work and academic performance. Methodological issues are discussed, as well as remarkable results and possible statistical trends. This study suggests the idea that the current way of measuring part-time work can be executed more broadly
