Working while studying at university: The relationship between work benefits and demands and engagement and well-being

Figure 2. Final model with non-significant pathways and latent variables removed to simplify. More enabling resources, rewards, and involvement were related to more facilitation; fewer rewards and more time demands were related to more conflict. Higher facilitation was related to more engagement and higher wellbeing; more conflict was related to more negative feelings. Facilitation and conflict did not operate as mediators. Standardised path weights are reported.
