How Part-Time Work Intensity Relates to Drug Use, Problem Behavior, Time Use, and Satisfaction among High School Seniors: Are These Consequences or Merely Correlates?

Bachman, Jerald G.; Schulenberg, John

Developmental Psychology, v29 n2 p220-35 Mar 1993

Found correlations between work intensity and problem behaviors. These correlations were diminished, but not eliminated, when indicators of demographic background and educational success were controlled for. (BC)
