Control at Work, Control at Home, and Planning Behavior: Implications for Work–Family Conflict

Deskripsi

This study offers a cross-domain perspective on both individual and situational factors relating to work–family conflict. Individuals’ control at work and control at home were examined in relation to work interference with family (WIF) and to family interference with work (FIW). The authors also tested whether employees’ use of planning behavior moderated these relationships. Results suggest that control at work was more strongly related to reductions in WIF among employees who used more rather than less planning behavior. Control at home was related to FIW, but this relationship did not vary with employee’s use of planning behavior. Unexpectedly, control at home was also related to reductions in WIF.
