The present study was carried out to test an exploratory model consisting of three sets of variables (demographic, personality and workand family-related variables) in the prediction of well-being.

This study examined whether the relationships between aspects of work-family conflict and alcohol use variables differed by age. Participant...

Although critical to health and well-being, relatively little research has been conducted in the organizational literature on linkages between the work-family interface and sleep.

However, neither of these has been explicitly tested in a Chinese context despite the increasing attention given by business and organization researchers to the Chinese business world. Moreover, the extant evidence is less clear for performance outcomes than for attit...

Using in-depth interview data (n = 26) and structured survey data (n = 200) from immigrant Latinos employed in the poultry processing industry, the authors eva...

The current study aimed to systematically review prospective studies of work-family conflict and subsequent sickness absence. A systematic search was conducted in the electronic databases Medline, PsycINFO, and Embase with subject...
