Abstract
This study was designed to test the theory that adolescents working in a family owned business versus working in a private enterprise would report differences on variables commonly associated with part-time employment. Results indicated that working in a family business was associated with males' and females' reporting greater perceived parental support and males' reporting less drug and alcohol use. Findings were consistent with other research on the associations of hours worked with outcome variables.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
