Research on the relationship between job-related stress and well-being has focused largely on organizational work contexts. Using a Dutch sample, we examined stress in a typical family business setting--the family farm--to explore how the farm wife's contribution to farm work is related to her well-being. We used LISREL to test an explanatory model based on the Michigan stress approach. In this model, farm women's farm contributions and their predictors, perceived role and financial stressors, husband support, self-esteem, and mental and physical health complaints were included. The results show that husband support is more important for farm women's well-being than the role-related or financial stressors. The implications of the findings are briefly discussed
