Job-Family Role Strain among Employed Single Mothers of Preschoolers.

Campbell, Marian L.; Moen, Phyllis

Family Relations, v41 n2 p205-11 Apr 1992

Examined correlates of job-family strain in 160 Canadian employed single mothers with preschoolers. Strain was positively related to hours worked, number of children, and child's age and negatively associated with more positive attitudes to work and higher work satisfaction. Child care variables were not associated with strain. (Author/NB)
