Ethnic Variations in the Connection Between Work-Induced Family Separation and Turnover Intent
Using conservation of resources theory, this study examines the role of resources in the relationship between work-induced family separation and workers’ intentions to leave their employment and how these relationships vary across ethnic groups. Analyses of a large representative sample of military members reveal that family separation is significantly related to intent to leave the military and that this relationship is partially mediated by res…
Vacation and Family Functioning
Ambiguous absence, ambiguous presence: A qualitative study of military reserve families in wartime.
The "Global War on Terrorism" has resulted in reservists being deployed at an ever-increasing rate. However, because reservists and their families are unaccustomed to deployments, many families may experience boundary ambiguity, a state in which family members are uncertain in their perception about who is in or out of the family and who is performing which roles and tasks within the family. This qualitative description study examined boundary am…
Family Cohesion in the Lives of Mexican American and European American Parents
This study investigated similarities and differences in relations between stress and parenting behaviors for 509 Mexican American and European American fathers and mothers in Southern California. Our model posited that family cohesion mediates the relation between stressors and parenting behavior, and we found that family cohesion strongly mediated most of the relations between stress and parenting behaviors. Important ethnic and gender differenc…
Community Contexts: The Perspectives and Adaptations of Working Parents
This article discusses the importance of considering communities to be important social contexts for working families. The Nurturing Families Study gathered data from 357 working parents and their children in Grades 6 to 8 who lived in six different U.S. communities. The study protocols included items that measured parents'subjective assessments of important social contexts, including families' communities of residence. Data were collected about …
An Episodic Process Model of Affective Influences on Performance.
In this article, the authors present a model linking immediate affective experiences to within-person performance. First, the authors define a time structure for performance (the performance episode) that is commensurate with the dynamic nature of affect. Next, the authors examine the core cognitive and regulatory processes that determine performance for 1 person during any particular episode. Third, the authors describe how various emotions and …
Walking the Walk: Insights from Research on Helping Clients Navigate Work and Family
Challenges related to managing multiple life roles, particularly work and family roles, often bring individuals or couples to psychotherapy. While a vast empirical literature exists on issues in managing work and family roles, there is little integration of this research into family therapy practice. The purpose of this article is to offer an initial attempt at such integration by considering the implication of work-family research for clinical i…

Role Balance Among White Married Couples
We generate models predicting wives' and husbands' feelings of overall balance across roles. Drawing on fine-grained data about marital lifestyles and time use, we find few predictors that are the same for both partners. Both report greater role balance when their level of parental attachment to children is higher and when their marital satisfaction is greater, but gendered time use gives rise to important differences. Wives report greater balanc…
Organizational Size and Work-Family Issues
Although the number of small businesses has grown significantly, and the majority of American workers are employed by smaller companies, very little attention has been given to conducting research studies about work-family issues in these companies. This article presents information about other business studies that have focused on organizational size, and it highlights several research traditions that can be used to develop future studies of com…

A Within-Industry Comparison of Employed Mothers' Experiences in Small and Large Workplaces
This research focuses on links between mothers' perceptions of their parenting practices, their parenting values, and their children's behavior and the work conditions they experience in small and large workplaces. We explored both direct and indirect (via work-family tension) relationships. We found significant relationships between work conditions and parenting, and significant differences between small and large workplaces, even when backgroun…
Multiple Roles and the Self: A Theory of Role Balance
The literature on multiple roles and identities tends either to ignore strategies of role-system organization altogether or to assume that all people organize a salience hierarchy, through which they assign more importance to some roles and selves than to others. Drawing on our reading of William James and George Herbert Mead, we argue that the way people organize their roles and identities is an empirical issue, not an established fact, and that…

Into the Lion's Den: Methodological Issues for Work-Family Research Inside the Corporation
This article examines some of the methodological issues researchers confromt when conducting research on work-family issues within corporate or business settings. These issues include (1) gaining access and entry, (2) the need for high quality data from multiple sources, and (3) special issues posed by program evaluation research within the work site. This is accomplished by reviewing extant literature on flextime, employer-sponsored child care, …

In addition, the degree of congruity between spouses' sex-role attitudes and the division of labor was used to explain differences between couples' reports of love and marital conflict. The sample included 98 couples, 29 who became parents during the first year of marriage and 23 during the second year. All groups of husbands and wives experienced declines in their feelings of love, marital satisfaction, and the fre…
