The father's and the mother's intrinsic work motivation and their work‐to‐family conflict perceived by the adolescent: Dyadic and triadic analyses
研究父母内在工作动机如何影响青少年感知的工作-家庭冲突，发现父亲动机正向关联其冲突，但母亲不显著，且性别平等主义起调节作用。
Abstract Integrating work–family conflict theory with family systems theory, we examine a potential dark side of parents' intrinsic work motivation by linking it to their work‐to‐family conflict (WFC) perceived by the adolescent at home. We hypothesize that the father's (mother's) intrinsic motivation may be positively related to his (her) WFC perceived by the adolescent. We additionally hypothesize that one spouse's WFC perceived by the adolescent is higher when his/her relative intrinsic motivation (to the other spouse) is higher. Finally, we examine gender egalitarianism (GE) as a moderator. Using data from 198 dual‐earning heterosexual couples and their adolescent child from the 500‐Family Project, we found strong support for the hypotheses pertaining to the father but no support for the hypotheses pertaining to the mother. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
