Consequences of work‐home segmentation or integration: a person‐environment fit perspective
研究了个人的工作家庭分割偏好与工作场所提供的分割程度之间的匹配如何影响工作家庭冲突、压力和工作满意度,发现匹配效应存在不对称性,挑战了以往倡导整合的观点。
Abstract This study demonstrates how the interaction between an individual's work‐home segmentation preference and the perceived segmentation provided by the workplace affects work‐home conflict (WHC), stress, and job satisfaction. Using a person‐environment (P‐E) fit theoretical base and methodology, data from 325 employees in a wide variety of occupations and organizations illustrate significant fit effects on these outcomes. Results from polynomial regression and response surface methodology highlight important asymmetric effects found in these P‐E fit relationships. By demonstrating the asymmetric results of fit effects, the findings challenge previous research, which has typically advocated an integration of work and home in order to ameliorate role conflict and stress.
