Work-family conflict and toddler parenting : a dynamic approach to the role of parents’ daily work–family experiences in their day-to-day parenting practices through feelings of parental emotional exhaustion Ghent University
The objective of this study was to examine associations between daily fluctuations in work-family conflict (i.e. work-to-family interference [WFI] and family-to-work interference [FWI]) and daily fluctuations in toddler parenting (i.e. controlling parenting practices), thereby investigating day-to-day feelings of parental emotional exhaustion as an underlying mechanism. Both mothers and fathers participated in a five-day diary study when their ...
Towards a fine-grained analysis of the link between borderline personality pathology and job burnout: Investigating the association with work-family conflict Vrije Universiteit Brussel Ghent University
Although numerous studies have investigated Borderline Personality Pathology (BPP) in relation to unfavorable family-life outcomes, its relationship with job correlates is poorly understood. Using a fine-grained analysis, the present study examined the link between BPP and job burnout. Focusing on both the overall BPP score as well as on the facets of BPP (i.e., anxiousness, depression, emotional lability, hostility, separation insecurity, risk ...

Een problematische balans tussen werk en gezin kan leiden tot onder andere stress en verminderde levenstevredenheid. In 2007 werden gegevens verzameld van 490 Vlaamse werkende moeders om na te gaan welke gevolgen van WFC voor het welbevinden zich voordoen in Vlaanderen. De U+2018bidirectionaliteitU+2019 van ...
Work-family conflict : comparing the experiences of Turkish and native Belgian women Ghent University
Bien que la recherche se concentre sur un certain nombre de dimensions du conflit entre le travail et la famille (WFC), il n'existe pratiquement pas de documentation qui analyse comment les différences dans les systèmes familiaux pourraient aider à expliquer les variations dans les expériences de WFC.

The moderating role of work-family conflict in the relationship between job demands, job resources and burnout.
Experiencing work-family conflict and enrichment in contemporary families University of Antwerp
In adults’ lives, work and family form the two main life domains. Changing societal trends – such as the increase in dual-earner families, divorce rate, and workload levels – form the impetus for scientific research to investigate the dynamics of combining work and family life. Applying Bronfenbrenner’s (1986) ecological systems theory, the current PhD’s goal is to investigate how contemporary families experience work-family balance. This ...
Work-family conflict and facilitation: the combined influence of the job demand-control model and achievement striving KU Leuven
This study investigated the moderating effect of achievement striving (AS) on the relationship between situational variables, defined by the Job Demand-Control model (JDC), and both work-family conflict and work-family facilitation. In a sample of 224 employees in the welfare sector, the results of two hierarchical regression analyses showed that job demands were significantly positively related and job control was significantly negatively ...
Underestimating busyness: Indications of nonresponse bias due to work-family conflict and time pressure KU Leuven University of Antwerp Ghent University
nternational research shows that both work–family conflict and time pressure are increasing in Western societies. With these increased pressures, precisely those people who are combining work and family obligations may be missing from survey estimates. This study investigates whether the measurement of work–family conflict (WFC) and time pressure is influenced by nonresponse bias. Using the Flemish ‘‘Work, Family and Time use in ...
Work–family conflict and stress: indications of the distinctiveness of role combination stress for Belgian working mothers KU Leuven Ghent University University of Antwerp
Research on the relation between work-family conflict (WFC) and stress focuses either on domain/role-specific stress (e.g. work stress), which is by definition and, operationalisation attributed to the respective role, or it focuses on ‘general’ stress, which can be a too broad or too general concept to measure stress related to WFC. This study introduces the concept of ‘role combination stress’ to indicate a stress that is more specifically ...
