Library Student Assistants’ Workload and their Academic Performance
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 22, Issue 2
Abstract
Student assistants play an important role in the smooth operation of the library for effective and efficient delivery of services to users. This descriptive-regression research design was utilized to determine whether student assistants’ library workload has a significant influence on their academic performance. It involved 100 academic library student assistants from Regions 11 and 12, who were selected using Purposive and Universal Sampling techniques. A well-structured and self-made questionnaire was used to gather data from the respondents who worked in the library for more than two semesters. Mean scores and simple linear regression analysis were utilized to interpret and analyze all the data gathered. Results showed that the level of library student assistant’s workload was not significantly related to the level of their academic performance. It also revealed that the student workload could not significantly influence student academic performance. Thus, the study failed to reject the null hypothesis. One of the recommendations is that students’ assistants should develop effective time-management strategies to balance work responsibilities with academic commitments to improve academic performance.
