The Impact of Adolescent Work in Family Business on Child–Parent Relationships and Psychological Well-Being
利用加拿大全国纵向调查数据，研究发现全年在家族企业工作的青少年与父母关系更好、心理健康更佳，凸显高质量早期工作经历的重要性。
Previous ecological theory of human development research shows mixed results concerning the impact of adolescent work on psychological and family outcomes. We show the consequences of working in the family firm on adolescents’ parental relationships, self-esteem, and depression, highlighting the importance of high-quality work experiences in the early life course. Weighted regression analysis of longitudinal data from Statistics Canada’s National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth shows that those adolescents who work in their family firms on a year-round basis report a better relationship with their parents, and better psychological well-being than their nonfamily firm working counterparts.
