Undergraduate study can be a strenuous experience for non-conventional students, those with work commitments, demanding family responsibilities, or challenging personal lives. In the Gulf region, these demands are exacerbated for working female students due to the socioeconomic structures of family, culture, and work. The study explores work-study-life balance (WSLB) among working students in Qatar, the UAE, and Oman, focusing on gender roles, experiences, and coping mechanisms. The impact of WSLB on family dynamics is also examined, including mothers and their children. The study reports several WSLB consequences, such as work-family conflict, stress, and reduced productivity.

摘要

Undergraduate study can be a strenuous experience for non-conventional students, those with work commitments, demanding family responsibilities, or challenging personal lives. In the Gulf region, these demands are exacerbated for working female students due to the socioeconomic structures of family, culture, and work. The study explores work-study-life balance (WSLB) among working students in Qatar, the UAE, and Oman, focusing on gender roles, experiences, and coping mechanisms. The impact of WSLB on family dynamics is also examined, including mothers and their children. The study reports several WSLB consequences, such as work-family conflict, stress, and reduced productivity.
