Trang 3I Introduction:
In Western countries, where time is considered one of the most valuable assets of workers, theconcept of "part-time" was born quite early Although it has only been around for less than a decade in Vietnam, with the globalization trend, "part-time" has become a "hot" keyword
Part- time jobs was born as an effective solution for job seekers to maximize their time and earn more money People work "part-time" for a variety of reasons, including the desire to gain experience for future jobs, the desire to exchange and learn, the desire to constantly change the working environment, and the desire to renew themselves every day Therefore,, "part-time" becomes a benefit, a real hobby, not just a way to make money
In recent years, "part-time" job has begun to come to students more actively in recent years,
thanks to the outstanding development of the Internet More than anyone else, "part-time" hits hard on students, not only because they always need an income to add to their monthly supply, butalso because this class is always ready to work with enthusiasm and dynamism typical of youth Students are compared to "time kings", so it is also an opportunity for students
to use their free time to gain experience before entering a professional working environment
Besides, if you do not have the right orientation about part-time jobs and future goals, but onlyfocus on immediate goals, forgetting the main task of studying, you cannot balance between studying and doing part-time jobs will affect the academic results, health, lifestyle of students
So, part-time jobs can be considered a "double- edged sword" The question is how do students
do part-time jobs to earn extra income, have the opportunity to be close to reality, perfect their skills without being "alienated", negatively affecting their learning, practice morality and
lifestyle
Our research team, as students , chose the topic "Effects of part-time job on college students' lives in Hanoi" in the hopes of generating some ideas and orienting students in choosing part-time jobs, proposing some solutions to help them balance study and part-time work, so that part-time jobs truly support students' learning and self-improvement, as a preparation for them to conquer the future

Trang 6-The number of people working from home during the period of social distancing accounted for52.9%, that led to the drop in pupils living in rented house or dorm with nearly 4% The number
of people still renting houses is still there when Hanoi implements social distancing with
36.96%
- From the above numbers, initially, the research team predicted that part-time jobs would be considered to have less impact on learning because many jobs take place in the online
environment so students can reduce time and costs for students during pandemic period

people told that their self-studying times was narrowed Approximately 34-45% of attendance
experienced problems such as:
No time for study
Less time on school
Unfocused on Studying
Can not keep it balance between studying and working
Beside that, there were some serious issues occurred such as losing studying motivation
(15.2%) Otherwise, there were still some who didn’t get effected by it (9.8%)

remaining balance between studying and working part-time after witnessing reports about
health according to the survey

living standard which leading to developing in health (52.4%) and mindset (41.5%)
Plenty benefits could be listed out such as: Stabilize their life, improving their awareness
in health caring and exercises… Those were listed by almost 32% people attended the
Damaging physical health 27.4%
Biological clock disorder 37.2%
Negative effects on health

- The average GPA of the students is about 3.0 - Standard deviation is 0.9 - The majority of students achieve good and excellent degrees
NUMBER OF THE CURRENT JOB
- On average, about 80 people in the survey doing only one job
- The number of people doing 2 jobs at the same time is less, just above 10 people
- And only 5 people who are doing 3 jobs at the
same time
AVER_STUDYTIME
Trang 14- On average, each person spends about 2 hours on self-study.
- Most students, even if they have part-time jobs, they still spend 1 to 4 hours on self-study, which can also explain that even if they work, it doesn't affect their studies and their average GPA that from good level or higher
- On average, students go to work about 4 hours a day
- But based on the chart, the number of people working about 2 hours a day is the highest
- The number of students working more than 6 hours a day is quite small
- Most students work part time, so their working hours are not too many, it does not affect their studies

Trang 16- Overall, the extent that work affects schooling, health, or relationships on average is rated positively.
- It can also be seen that part-time jobs bring many benefits to students
- Satisfaction level is the majority at level 3 and level 4, showing a very positive influence on relationships
- Regarding the effect on health, the majority of people at level 3 are positive, but the number of people who choose level 2 is at the highest effect on health out of the 3 tables This may be the case for people who work 2 or more jobs because having to work too much is also very bad for their health
- As for the influence on learning, most of them are very positive influences at level 3 and level
4, accounting for 80% of the survey Show that part-time jobs help them study better, having a place to practice lessons in class helps them understand the lesson and study better Prove that their GPA is mostly from pretty good to majority
- In 3 graphs, it can be seen that going to work has a positive influence on learning and
relationships mainly (80% are rated at 3 and 4) are highly appreciated by the students and the efficiency of going to work
a. Dependent Variable: GPA
b. All requested variables entered
- Dependent Variable: GPA => Average GPA during the period in university
- Independent Variables:
· work => Average working time per day
· study => Average self-study time per day

- R-square=0.001: Coefficient of determination Because we are running multi linear regression
so R-square have some limitations
Using Adjusted R-square
Total ∑of squares
- R-square*adjustment factor = Adjusted R-square = -0.014
The value of adjusted R-square is too small, so this model is not so good because it seems that the dependent variable mostly can not explained by 2 independent variables
- The value of Std.Error of the Estimate is 0.91034 This value is not big This might be a good regression

Dependent Variable: Aver_GPA
- Linear regression: GPA = 3.012 + 0.15study – 0.008work
On average:
If student doesn’t have a job and self-study, his/her average GPA will be 3.012
When student increases his/her self-study time by 1 hour, his/her average GPA increases by 0.15
When student increases his/her working time by 1 hour, his/her average GPA decreases by 0.008
- Absolute value of standardized coefficients of β1 (0.023) is higher than that of β2 (0.019), so the average
self-study time has more effect on the average GPA than the average working time
- Test for hypothesis:
Trang 19Because sig β2 = 0.828 > α=0.05 => not reject H0 => β2 might be equal 0 and the average working time might make no sense to Average GPA.
Comment: At first, we expected that there was a positive correlation between self-study time,
working time and GPA If what we expected has enough evidence to be proved that it is right,students can look at our research and make most suitable decisions for them However, as theresults which are estimated and explained by those tables above, there’s nothing at all All theestimated results are insignificant that means GPA of a student is almost unaffected by his/herself-study time or the amount of time he/she goes to work

working will be 4.101
When student increases his/her average self-study time per day by 1 hour, his/her
average working time per day increases by 0.007 hour
When student’s average monthly allowance is increased by VND 1 million,
his/her average working time per day increases by 0.043 hour
- Absolute value of standardized coefficients of β1 (0.004) is lower than that of β2 (0.039), so theaverage self-study time per day has less effect on the average working time per day than the average monthly allowance

H1:β2≠0
Because sig β2 = 0.652 > α=0.05 => not reject H0 => β2 might be equal 0 and the
average monthly allowance might make no sense to Average working time per day
Comment: On the other hand, in the second model, average working time per day is expected to
decrease when both average monthly allowance and average self-study time per day increase.However, same conclusion happened that there was no correlation among them From ourperspective, this faulty maybe due to lack of proper theories when developing variables
