PASTOR-ALVAREZ, A. The influence of work-family balance on the mental health of military emergency unit personnel. Sanid. Mil. [online]. 2022, vol.78, n.4, pp.206-215. Epub 26-Jun-2023. ISSN 1887-8571. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s1887-85712022000400003.
In this research we tried to analyze the influence of the family-work interrelationship with perceived stress and the general mental health of staff involved in emergencies. In addition, it has been explored whether a specific psychological variable such as perceived self-efficacy exerted some kind of mediating effect between the family-work axis relationships with outcome variables, stress and general mental health. To this end, a series of questionnaires were applied to a sample of 460 participants from the Emergency Military Unit, whose data were subsequently analyzed through linear regression techniques, and mediation study with PROCESS.
Results indicate that there is a significant direct relationship between family-work interrelationship, with respect to stress and general mental health perceived by emergency staff. No evidence has been found that perceived the self-efficacy variable exerts any kind of mediating effect between family-work interrelation and outcome variables.
In conclusion, further research should be carried out on psychological variables that can mitigate the stress generated by emergency personnel, from their family environment. It has been shown that this has a significant relationship between the two concepts and that it can have consequences on the general mental health of the participants.
