Green, David L. – Adolescence, 1990
Asked 35 middle-class high school seniors to relate their jobs, or decisions not to work, to social context of employment. Findings suggest that negative stereotype of high school student-worker is not justified. Part-time work appeared to uphold variety of interpretations of work ethic within framework of normative middle-class values. (Author/NB)
