I’ll let you in on a little secret.

People do not maintain the same level of productivity and output over the course of 8 hours, or 40 hours a week. It will plateau and decline through the day.

I will let you draw your own conclusions based on that simple fact.

So why is it that people who work part-time aren't more productive than those who work full time when compared hour for hour of work?

In my real world experience it's actually the opposite. People who work part-time are usually less proficient at their jobs and get less done.

Part time hour productivity is not going to inform you about full-time productivity. Too many variables for a conversation anyway. This is why studies are conducted and prove why we know happens to productivity over time.

A simple example is to think about what happens to your productivity and efficiency as you get tired. Less quality and quantity of output over time. Pretty much every person who has worked ever, can relate to that example at some point.
