Preferred term

student work and educational effects  

Definition

  • Historically, student employment has been negatively associated with poor schooling outcomes for youth. During the late 19th and early 20th century, children who worked often did so in lieu of attending school and reflected an either-or relationship between students' employment and their promotion in school.
