Spillover Between Work and Home, Role Importance and Life Satisfaction
研究201名知识工作者发现，家庭对工作的正向溢出与更高生活满意度相关，工作对家庭的负向溢出与更低生活满意度相关，且家庭角色重要性会强化家庭负向溢出对生活满意度的负面影响。
This study of n = 201 knowledge workers examines positive and negative spillover between work and home and its interrelation with life satisfaction. Additionally, it accounts for the direct effect of role importance on life satisfaction and its moderating effect on the interrelation between spillover and life satisfaction. Central to role importance is the degree of attachment that an individual places on family role and career role. Positive spillover from home is interrelated with higher life satisfaction, whereas negative spillover from work is related to lower life satisfaction. Family role importance and career role importance are associated with higher life satisfaction. For respondents with higher family role importance, there is a stronger interrelation between negative spillover from home and lower life satisfaction.
