    The 16-item Work Study Congruence Scale was developed to assess self-perceived congruence between work and study roles in university students.

The new scale taps four domains: university demands/resources, occupational goals, family, and leisure. It has the potential to promote research on work-study congruence, which can shed light on factors that promote student engagement and well-being.
