Abstract: | This study examined whether single parents experience greater reductions in work-to-family conflict from using resources than
partnered parents do. The question of whether single mothers, single fathers, partnered mothers, or partnered fathers experienced
differing levels of work-to-family conflict was also addressed. Data were from the 2002 National Study of the Changing Workforce,
and only those respondents with at least one child under the age of 18 living in the household were included in the analysis
(N = 1325). Findings indicated that single-parent status was not directly related to work-to-family conflict. Rather single-parent status interacted with other variables, including gender,
control over work hours, and the number of other adults in the home, in predicting work-to-family conflict. |
