A Cross-Disciplinary Bibliometric Review of Family-Friendly Work Activities and Agenda for Future Research
用文献计量方法梳理了40年来跨学科的家庭友好型工作活动研究，整合了其前因后果，并提出了未来研究方向，适合关注工作家庭平衡的研究者和实践者。
Over the past few decades, scholarship on managing the work-family interface has expanded, particularly regarding family-friendly work activities (FFWAs) designed to alleviate various forms of work-family conflict. We bring together the broad, cross-disciplinary research on FFWAs using bibliometric performance and mapping techniques. Using these techniques, we review 40 years of FFWA research across different scientific disciplines to then synthesize the existing knowledge and identify its contributing entities (e.g., authors, journals), collaborations among some of the entities (e.g., co-author relationships), and main themes, and collaborations among authors. In other words, we map and describe the intellectual, social, and conceptual structures of the FFWA literature. Based on this, we organize and integrate the cross-disciplinary literature across levels of analysis using the Ability-Motivation-Opportunity (AMO) model into a nomological network of FFWAs’ antecedents and consequences. Then, we use this nomological net to further delineate research questions and provide avenues for future research. Taken together, our comprehensive review offers clarity on the current state of FFWAs research and provides recommendations for future studies to advance theory, research, and practice.
