Better and worse: A dual-process model of the relationship between core self-evaluation and work-family conflict
Based on both resource allocation theory (Becker, 1965; Bergeron, 2007) and role theory (Katz & Kahn, 1978), the current study aims to uncover the relationship between core self-evaluation (CSE) and three dimensions of work interference with family (WIF). A dual-process model was proposed, in w...

description | Based on both resource allocation theory (Becker, 1965; Bergeron, 2007) and role theory (Katz & Kahn, 1978), the current study aims to uncover the relationship between core self-evaluation (CSE) and three dimensions of work interference with family (WIF). A dual-process model was proposed, in which both work stress and career resilience mediate the CSE-WIF relationship. The mediation model was tested with a sample of employees from various organizations (N = 561). The results first showed that CSE was negatively related to time-based and strain-based WIF and positively related to behavior-based WIF via the mediation of work stress. Moreover, CSE was positively associated with behavior-based and strain-based WIF via the mediation of career resilience, suggesting that CSE may also have its dark-side. |
