A comprehensive model of the work-family interface was developed and tested. The proposed extended prior research by explicitly distinguishing between work interfering with family work. This distinction allowed testing hypotheses concerning unique antecedents outcomes both forms conflict a reciprocal relationship them. influence gender, race, job type on generalizability also examined. Data were obtained through household interviews random sample 631 individuals. tested structural equation...
The present study proposed and tested a motivational model of alcohol use in which people are hypothesized to regulate both positive negative emotions. Two central premises underpin this model: (a) that enhancement coping motives for proximal determinants abuse through the influence expectancies, emotions, other individual differences mediated (b) represent phenomenologically distinct behaviors having unique antecedents consequences. This was 2 random samples (1 adults, 1 adolescents) using...
Cross‐sectional research provides consistent evidence that work–family conflict is positively associated with a host of adverse health‐related outcomes. The authors extend past by examining the longitudinal relations work → family and to self‐report (depressive symptomatology, physical health, heavy alcohol use) objective cardiovascular (incidence hypertension) health Survey data were obtained from random community sample 267 employed parents during 1989 (baseline) 1993 (follow‐up). Ordinary...
Abstract This study tested Pleck's (1977) hypothesis concerning gender differences in the relative permeability of work and family boundaries. Data were obtained from a randomly drawn community sample 631 employed adults (278 men; 353 women). Respondents reported that interfered with life (W→F conflict) more frequently than (F→W conflict). These results suggest boundaries are indeed asymmetrically permeable being However, there was no evidence pattern asymmetry, indicating dynamics may...
This study examined the relation between work-family conflict and several types of psychiatric disorders: mood, anxiety, substance dependence, abuse. Survey data were obtained from a representative national sample 2,700 employed adults who either married or parent child 18 years old younger. Hierarchical logistic regression analyses revealed that both work-to-family family-to-work positively related to having dependence disorder. Depending on type disorder, employees reported experiencing...
A stressor vulnerability model of stress-induced drinking was tested in a stratified random sample 1,316 Black and White adult drinkers. Stressors were highly predictive both alcohol use problems among men who relied on avoidant forms emotion coping or held strong positive expectancies for alcohol's effects accounted more than 35% the variance subgroup high factors. In contrast, stressors negatively related low unrelated women regardless their expectancies. These findings suggest that...
Research on aggression from organizational outsiders (customers, clients or patients) has ignored insider-instigated aggression, and been limited to employees in emotional labor jobs (e.g., social work customer services). The authors argue that customer-employee interactions have distinct characteristics insider interactions, provide two studies compare the frequency strain of verbal abuse customers, supervisors coworkers. Furthermore, they assess whether is only a critical issue for...
On the basis of identity theory and research on sex role socialization, it was predicted that both work interfering with family (W-->F conflict) (F-->W are uniquely related to depression, poor physical health, heavy alcohol use (Hypothesis 1). It also gender would moderate these relationships, such W-->F conflict is more strongly outcomes among women 2a) F-->W men 2b). Survey data were obtained from 2 random community samples employed parents (Ns = 496 605). Hierarchical regression analyses...
Although work fatigue represents an important construct in several substantive areas, prior conceptual definitions and measures have been inadequate a number of ways. The goals the present study were to develop definition outline desirable characteristics measure, briefly examine fatigue-related constructs, evaluate new measure fatigue. Three-Dimensional Work Fatigue Inventory (3D-WFI) provides separate commensurate assessments physical, mental, emotional Results from pilot (n = 207) broader...
On the basis of A. P. Fiske's (1992) general theory social relations, a model interpersonal conflict at work was developed and tested in sample young workers. The predicts that with supervisors is predictive organizationally relevant psychological outcomes (job satisfaction, organizational commitment, turnover intentions), whereas coworkers personally (depression, self-esteem, somatic symptoms). Data were obtained from 319 individuals ages 16 to 19 years. Structural equation modeling results...
Abstract From additive models of overall quality life, two hypotheses were derived about the relationships among work—family conflict, work—leisure job satisfaction, family leisure satisfaction and global life satisfaction. In supporting these hypotheses, path analyses survey data from a national probability sample United States workers ( n = 823) showed: (1) direct paths between work—nonwork conflict nonsignificant; (2) indirect which are mediated by nonwork all significant. Further...
Academic dishonesty is a significant problem among students from elementary school through college. The desire to succeed in increased when there breakdown the norms associated with conventional academic attitudes. authors conducted survey research study examine relationship between performance and cheating. They hypothesized that inverse cheating moderated by identification self-efficacy. results show more likely lower achieving they do not identify school, higher low levels of
The longitudinal relations among contact with one's social network (social contact), perceived support, depression, and alcohol use were examined. An integrative model was developed from affect regulation theory theories of support dysfunctional drinking. Data obtained a random sample 1,192 adults. 3-wave panel tested using structural equation modeling analysis. Results revealed that (a) positively related to support; (b) was, in turn, negatively depression; (c) depression for 1 2 lags....
Predictors of work injuries were studied in a sample employed adolescents. The 20 predictors comprise 5 general categories risk factors: demographic, personality, employment, health, and substance use. Data obtained from 319 individuals ages 16 to 19. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that all factors related job injuries. significant among adolescents gender, negative affectivity, tenure, exposure physical hazards, excessive workloads, boredom, poor on-the-job
