Abstract

Although literature on work-family conflict and wellbeing is quite extensive, previous research has not examined the role of spirituality as a mechanism for coping with work-family conflict. In this research, we proposed that spirituality will moderate the relationship between work-family conflict and wellbeing. The research included a broad range of wellbeing variables, including job and family satisfaction, subjective wellbeing and psychological wellbeing. Based on a survey of large national sample (N=1130), we found that spirituality mitigated the negative effects of work- family conflict on a broad range of wellbeing measures. We discuss implications for theory and practice of work family conflict and spirituality in organizations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
