Spillover from Family to Work: The Neglected Side of the Work-Family Interface
研究发现家庭生活对工作有重要影响，尤其是有年幼子女的女性报告了更高水平的家庭到工作溢出，挑战了以往只关注工作影响家庭的研究视角。
It is argued that while researchers have emphasized work's impact on the family, the family exerts important influences on the workplace that have been generally overlooked. This article draws upon evidence of family-to-work spillover from a recent exploratory field study in a large manufacturing plant. Semistructured interviews with 55 employees, both on the job and at home, revealed that most employees recognized that their family lives influenced them at work. Analyses of variance examining positive and negative spillover from home to work suggested that women with young children at home are most likely to report high levels of spillover, in contrast to mothers of older children and to fathers regardless of their position in the family life cycle.
