A thesis is an aptitude test for students. The approval of the thesis is proof that the student has sufficient research and reporting skills to graduate but does not guarantee the quality of the research and the results of the research as such, and the thesis is therefore not necessarily suitable to be used as an academic source to refer to. If you would like to know more about the research discussed in this thesis and any publications based on it, to which you could refer, please contact the supervisor mentioned.
Abstract
The present study examines if studying with a part-time job negatively influences the student's academic performance and well-being. In addition, the study took into account moderating factors such as gender and time management to determine their impact on the academic performance of university students. A convenience sample of 189 participants was collected and used to investigate the abovementioned effects. The data was measured with a self-report design. Based on the results, working part-time did not have a significant impact on the academic performance or general well-being of students. In fact, students reported a higher level of well-being when working part-time compared to not working at all. The research findings suggest that gender does not significantly impact time management skills and academic performance in general. To improve the work environment for students, it is crucial to analyze their well-being and its impact on academic performance and time management while also considering gender differences.
