Bakker, Arnold B.; ten Brummelhuis, Lieke L.; Prins, Jelle T.; van der Heijden, Frank M. M. A. – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2011
Work-home interference (WHI) is a prevalent problem because most employees have substantial family responsibilities on top of their work demands.

A two-wave survey was conducted…

This study tested the "loss spiral" hypothesis of work-home interference (WHI). Accordingly, work pressure was expected to lead to WHI and exhaustion, and, vice versa, exhaustion was expected to result in more WHI and work pressure over time. Results of SEM-analyses using three waves of data obtained from 335 employees of an employment agency…
