The Effects of Career Salience and Life-Cycle Variables on Perceptions of Work-Family Interfaces
研究了职业显著性和生命周期变量如何共同影响人们对工作与家庭关系的感知，发现不同职业取向的男女受生命周期影响不同。
In recent years, the life-stages theory on work-family interfaces has attracted considerable attention. Being based on theories of adult development, the life-stages theory has a strong biological/physiological overtone. It overlooks individual differences in values, attitudes, and orientations, as well as the effects of such differences on perceptions of work-family interfaces. In this context, the present paper explored the effects of career salience and life-cycle variables on life-role salience. The findings showed that career salience interacted with life-cycle variables such that life-cycle variables affected the perceptions of men and women with different career orientations differently. The study involved a stratified sample of 429 Business Administration graduates from a local university.
