Abstract
WANG, Zhengyuan. Communication Technology Use for Work at Home during Off-job Time and Work-Family Conflict: the Roles of Family Support and Psychological Detachment. Anal. Psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.33, n.1, pp.93-101. ISSN 1695-2294. https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/analesps.33.1.238581.
This study analyzes the influence of communication technology use for work at home during off-job time on work-family conflict. Our analysis is based on work-family border theory. Moreover, this study highlights the roles of psychological detachment and family support. Based on 423 samples, we use regression analysis to test our hypotheses. Results show that communication technology use for work at home during off-job time is related to employee work-family conflict positively, including time-based and strain-based conflicts. Family support moderates the effect of communication technology use for work at home during off-job time on employee work-family conflict. Furthermore, psychological detachment mediates the moderating effect of family support on the relationship between communication technology use for work at home during off-job time and employee work-family conflict.
Keywords : communication technology use for work at home; work-family conflict; family support; psychological detachment; work-family border.
