The Effects of Alcohol To The Academic Performance of Senior High School Student
The Effects of Alcohol To The Academic Performance of Senior High School Student
Introduction
Rationale
One of the disadvantages of being a student while holding a job is that they are
often short on time and commonly find themselves with limited time to study, sleep,
and maintain healthy eating habits. In a study conducted by Gorgulho, et al., one of
the main complaints among working students is that they find themselves without
enough time to eat right (Gorgulho, et al., 2012). Instead of consuming healthy foods,
such as fruit and whole grains, working students often grab a quick meal comprised of
low quality foods that contain sugar and high sodium (Gorgulho, et al., 2012). This is
not to say that students should feel discouraged and not work while in college, but
instead be mindful of the commitment and plan accordingly. For example, students
who work everyday might benefit from a 7 day food preparation technique at the
beginning of every week.If poor eating habits continue over an extended period of
time, this will increase the risk of obesity and the development of lifestyle related
chronic diseases (Huang, et al., 2003). Huang’s study on obesity, diet, and physical
activity among college students indicates that an estimated 35% of college students
are at risk for being overweight (Huang, et al., 2003). Low levels of physical activity
and poor nutrition are common reasons for this high incidence rate.
Many researchers focus on working after higher education but little research the
effects of working while in higher education. This has had an effect on students.
Mainly, they are looking for jobs while in school to help cushion some of those costs
and everyday expenses. In Moris Triventi’s study, he looked into the effect of working
in higher education. He found that working at low-intensity had positive effects but
higher-intensity jobs, 35 hours or more per week, tended to have negative effects.
Some of the positive effects are increased independence, ability to budget,managing a
schedule, and gaining soft skills, such as communication and problems.
Some of the negative effects are higher risk of dropping out, delayed graduation
rates, and negative effects on academic performance. He found that full-time workers
tend to have less time for academic studies and school activities. Non-workers average
17.0 hours of studying per week and part-time and full-time workers study 15.7 hours
a week. Full-time workers also attend class less time per week. Part-time workers in
this study were able to deal with the effects of working while in school (Triventi,
2014).
Research Questioner
Following research questions were used to guide the research in answering the main
objectives of the study:
2.What are the effect of part time jobs on student's academic performance?
3. What are the challenges faced by students when working while studying and
how do they overcome the problems.
Theoretical Lens
This study can be a source of information about students who are working while
studying simultaneously. This study is beneficial to students who will be engaging in
work while studying, for them to be aware at the situations and problems they will be
encountering. By knowing this factors of students who prefer to work and study
simultaneously will be responsive and ready for the situation he/she entering. Further
significance is the non working students and faculty members will be able to
understand the situation of the working students and help them to cope with their
studies. This study has significance implications to provide an idea to people on
solving the problems encountered by working students. This study may be a source of
further research regarding the problems of working student. Learning is the aspect of
development that meditation of behavior, skills and knowledge that result from
practice and experience which sought for quality education.

are typically greater than the amount of a paycheck.

Chapter II
On the other hand, stress becomes detrimental to health only when it is excessive.
Thus, an individual needs a certain level of stress for motivation, creativity and to face
challenges. However, long and continual unresolved stress can lead to physical and
mental exhaustion (Carney et al., 2005; Nes et al., 2005). Several factors are noted to
influence the way we perceive, interpret, and manage stressful events (Rosenbaum,
White & Gervino, 2012; Frazier, Steward, & Mortensen, 2004; Jones & Bright, 2001).
Workers with high perceived control see high-demand jobs as challenges to overcome
rather than threats. Thus, control influences a person’s choice of coping strategies.
