Do Students Have Enough Time to Study?

Dallam, Jerald W.; Hoyt, Donald P.

College and University, v57 n1 p84-91 Fall 1981

A study examined interactions among students' grades, hours worked in paid employment, and semester hours completed. Three generalizations emerged: (1) academic success varied with ability; (2) advisors do not suggest lighter academic loads for working students; and (3) advice giving students too much free time may reduce their academic commitment.
