Bouncing back, holding steady, or wiser for wear? Uncovering and predicting trajectories of work–eldercare conflict and enrichment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
研究COVID-19疫情期间工作与老年照护的冲突和增益轨迹,发现不同维度变化模式各异,并揭示工作与家庭支持及韧性如何影响适应过程,对关注员工福祉和老年照护的管理者有用。
= 193) during the COVID-19 pandemic using a three-wave, "shortitudinal" design (prepandemic, during lockdown, postlockdown). Growth curve modeling revealed differential trajectories across work-eldercare constructs; work-to-eldercare conflict continued to worsen over time, eldercare-to-work conflict exhibited a partial rebound pattern, work-to-eldercare enrichment was maintained over time, and eldercare-to-work enrichment showed an improvement pattern. We also uncover important variations in how (i.e., as a stable reservoir or a dynamic supply) and for whom support at work (family-supportive supervisor behaviors [FSSBs]) and family (work-supportive family [WSF]) facilitated adaptation. Beyond between-person FSSB, within-person increases in FSSB predicted favorable trajectories of all four work-eldercare experiences. Within-person WSF did not influence trajectories beyond between-person WSF. Trait resilience enhanced the benefits of between-person FSSB and WSF on initial eldercare-to-work enrichment and work-to-eldercare enrichment, respectively, whereas within-person FSSB and WSF related to the eldercare-to-work conflict trajectory only among those lower on trait resilience.
