Talk is cheap: Parent financial socialization and emerging adult financial well‐being
All’s not fair in love and work: Financial distress, work-family spillover, and relationship satisfaction in newly-married couples
Using Social Exchange Theory (SET) and an actor-partner interdependence model (APIM), we examine direct and indirect associations among financial distress, work-family spillover, and relationship satisfaction. Data come from wave 3 of the Couple Relationships and Transition Experiences (CREATE) study: a dyadic, nationally-representative sample of U.S. newlyweds (N = 1,044 opposite-sex, dual-earner couples). We found wives’ and husbands’ financial…

Finances, religion, and the Faar model: How religion exacerbates and alleviates financial stress
Previous research suggests that the association between religion and financial stress is complicated—some studies have found that religion exacerbates financial stress (Gutierrez et al., 2017), while others have found that religion alleviates financial stress (Bradshaw & Ellison, 2010). Drawing upon interviews of 172 religious parents and religious leaders in Ireland and the United Kingdom, the purpose of this study is to better understand the re…
Can We Talk About Money? Financial Socialization Through Parent–Child Financial Discussion
This multigenerational, qualitative research study explores family financial discussion processes that may lead to better financial preparation for emerging adults. Interviews were conducted with 90 emerging adults from three universities as well as 17 of their parents and 8 of their grandparents. Qualitative analyses revealed two major themes associated with family financial discussion processes. In parent-initiated discussions, principles were …
Practice Makes Perfect: Experiential Learning as a Method for Financial Socialization
Most financial socialization research focuses on two methods of learning: modeling and discussion. The purpose of this study is to qualitatively explore experiential learning as a third potential method of financial socialization used by parents. Specifically, we explored what children learned about finances through experiential learning and why parents used experiential learning as a financial socialization method. We used a multigenerational sa…
Feminism and Couple Finance: Power as a Mediator Between Financial Processes and Relationship Outcomes
Encore Adulthood: Boomers on the Edge of Risk, Renewal, and Purpose
No one needs to be reminded that there is a lot of remodeling being done to the traditional home of life course theory. This fine old four-bedroom house served the life course family well for several decades. Childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age were quite comfortable within its walls. The first remodel came when scholars recognized that Millennials needed somewhere else to sleep for a few years. They enlarged the home and added a fifth…
Achieving Desired Family Size in Dual-Working Households: Work and Family Influences Among Singaporean Couples
This study explores family formation-work fit (i.e., beliefs that work demands fit with desired family size) and its relation to achievement of desired family size, work-family facilitation and conflict, and marital satisfaction using a subsample ( N = 690) drawn from the nationally representative Singapore National Study of Work-Life Harmony. Results indicate that family formation-work fit was positively related to desired family size achievemen…
Couple Communication as a Mediator Between Work–Family Conflict and Marital Satisfaction
What Happens at Home Does Not Necessarily Stay at Home: The Relationship of Observed Negative Couple Interaction With Physical Health, Mental Health, and Work Satisfaction
Using data from a sample of 281 couples (the Flourishing Families data set), the authors tested a systemic theoretical model that examined the relationship among observed marital interaction, physical and mental health, and work satisfaction. The results showed that negative marital interaction was associated with significantly lower work satisfaction and poorer health for men. Higher negative marital interaction scores were significantly related…
Doing what she thinks is best: Maternal psychological wellbeing and attaining desired work situations
In this study we explore the gap between preferred and actual work situations for mothers of young children. We further examine the effects of not meeting desired work situation preferences on mothers’ depression and parenting stress over time. Using data from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development’s Study of Early Child Care (1141 families) our findings indicate up to 71 percent of mothers in this sample did not achieve the…
The Influence of Couple Emotional Intimacy on Job Perceptions and Work–Family Conflict
The purpose was to investigate the influence of couple emotional intimacy on job perceptions (job concerns and job rewards) and work–family conflict (both work‐to‐family conflict and family‐to‐work conflict). Data on 567 couples came from a subset of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development’s Study of Early Child Care taken when the target children were fifth graders. The researchers used an actor–partner interdependence model…
Putting work and family experiences in context: Differences by family life stage
This study explores how individuals across six family life stages (before children, transition to parenthood, youngest child preschool-age, youngest child school-age, youngest child adolescent, and empty nest) differ in their experience of the work—family interface. Data come from a global IBM work and life issues survey ( N = 41,769). Structural equation modeling was used to compare employees from six family life stages on work role factors (job…
Gender and the Work-Family Interface: Exploring Differences Across the Family Life Course

Religion and the Daily Lives of LDS Families: An Ecological Perspective
The purpose of this article is to explore in detail how religion and family religious rituals affect the day‐to‐day activities of individual and family life. It includes qualitative analysis of interviews with highly religious parents and children in 67 families that belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter‐day Saints. Findings suggest that for this sample, religion was more than an external influence; it was viewed as an integral part of o…
Work Interference with Dinnertime as a Mediator and Moderator Between Work Hours and Work and Family Outcomes
Using a sample of U.S. IBM employees who are parents (N = 1,580), the authors evaluated whether work interference with dinnertime mediates and moderates the relationship between work hours and work, personal, and family outcomes. The negative relationships between work hours and success in personal life, relationships with spouse/partner and children, and the perception of an emotionally healthy workplace were mediated by work interference with d…
The relationship of perceived flexibility, supportive work-life policies, and use of formal flexible arrangements and occasional flexibility to employee engagement and expected retention
This study examines the relationship of perceived workplace flexibility and supportive work–life policies to employee engagement and expectations to remain with the organization (expected retention). It also explores the association of formal and occasional (informal) use of flexibility with these outcomes. Data are from a multi-organization database created by WFD Consulting of studies conducted between 1996 and 2006. Results revealed that perce…
Exploring the relationship of workplace flexibility, gender, and life stage to family-to-work conflict, and stress and burnout
This study explores how the reported use and perceived value of five workplace flexibility options differ by gender and life stage. It also examines the relationship of perceived workplace flexibility, gender, and life stages to family-to-work conflict and stress and burnout. Data are from a multi-company database created by WFD Consulting containing the results of studies conducted in multiple organizations between 1996 and 2006. Results reveale…
Defining and conceptualizing workplace flexibility
We first compare and contrast current conceptualizations of workplace flexibility in order to arrive at a definition in harmony with its contemporary use: 'the ability of workers to make choices influencing when, where, and for how long they engage in work-related tasks'. Next, we situate workplace flexibility in its theoretical contexts to provide researchers with a clearer understanding of what workplace flexibility is, what its mechanisms of o…
Work-Family Facilitation and Conflict, Working Fathers and Mothers, Work-Family Stressors and Support
Work-family research frequently focuses on the conflict experienced by working mothers. Using data from the National Study of the Changing Workforce ( N = 1,314), this study also examined work-family facilitation and working fathers. Ecological systems, family stress, family resilience, and sex role theories were used to organize the data and create hypotheses. Work-to-family facilitation was positively related to job satisfaction and life satisf…

The Timing of Sexual Intercourse among Adolescents: Family, Peer, and Other Antecedents
Children's perceptions of their relationships with their parents and peers in 1976 and 1981, respectively, along with other salient antecedent variables, were related to their age at first sexual intercourse, as reported in 1987. Data came from the National Survey of Children, a three-wave longitudinal study of 1,145 children age 7-11 (Wave 1), 12-16 (Wave 2), and 18-22 (Wave 3). Antecedent variables were taken from both Round 1 and Round 2 surve…
A cross-cultural test of the work-family interface in 48 countries
This study tests a cross-cultural model of the work-family interface. Using multigroup structural equation modeling with IBM survey responses from 48 countries (N= 25,380), results show that the same work-family interface model that fits the data globally also fits the data in a four-group model composed of culturally related groups of countries, as well as a two-group gender model. This supports a transportable rather than a culturally specific …

Rethinking Fathers' Involvement in Child Care: A Developmental Perspective
Most studies of fathers' participation in child care focus on fairness, or domestic democracy. What is sacrificed by fairness-focused studies of family work is attention to the developmental tasks that adult men and women face while building a life together. This article explores the developmental implications for fathers of their underinvolvement in child care using Erikson's conception of adult development and his emphasis on achieving generati…

The Work‐Family Interface: Differentiating Balance and Fit
Work‐family fit has recently emerged in work and family literature, comparable to work‐family balance in that it represents interactions between work and family and yet distinct because it precedes balance and other outcomes. This study explores the relationship between, predictive factors of, and interactive moderating effects of work‐family fit and work‐family balance. Data are from a survey of business graduate school alumni (n = 387). Finding…

Researching the 60-Hour Dual-Earner Workweek: An Alternative to the “Opt-Out Revolution
This study is the first known large-scale research specifically examining the 60-hour workweek hypothesis, which proposes that the ideal for intact households with children is for both parents to participate in paid employment but with the combinedwork hours of the mother and the father not to exceed 60 hours per week. Three groups of married couples with children are compared: full-time/full-time; at least one partner part-time (60-hour); and fu…
