研究通过三阶段问卷调查,发现挑战性压力源通过提升自尊促进工作-家庭增益,而阻碍性压力源通过降低自尊削弱增益,且婚姻权力会增强自尊与增益的正向关系。
Purpose The paper aims to extend the work–home resources model by identifying self-esteem as the mechanism and marital power as the moderator on the relationship between challenge/hindrance stressors and work-to-family enrichment (WFE). Design/methodology/approach This paper conducted a three-phase paper survey. Path analytic models were used to test the hypotheses using Mplus 8.10. Findings Challenge stressor (workload) enriches employees’ family through increased self-esteem, while hindrance stressor (role conflict) threatens WFE through decreased self-esteem. Marital power strengthens the positive relationship between self-esteem and enrichment as well as the indirect relationships between job stressors and WFE. Originality/value This study reveals how and when job stressors increase WFE.
