Gambaran Work-Study Conflict pada Mahasiswa yang Bekerja

This study aims to provide a descriptive overview of the level of work-study conflict among working college students. Undertaking dual roles as both students and workers often triggers resource depletion regarding time and energy, potentially leading to role conflict. Utilizing a quantitative descriptive approach, this study involved 145 working student respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted online using a work-study conflict scale adapted from Markel and Frone (1998). The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to determine the mean, standard deviation, and variable categorization based on empirical norms (Empirical Mean and Empirical Standard Deviation). The results showed that the mean score of the respondents' work-study conflict was 75.97 with a standard deviation of 3.330. Based on the category distribution, the majority of respondents were in the moderate category, comprising 108 individuals (74.5%), followed by the high category with 20 individuals (13.8%), and the low category with 17 individuals (11.7%). These findings indicate that most working students experience a moderate level of role conflict, necessitating effective time management and self-regulation strategies to maintain academic and professional balance.
