Produktbeschreibung
How do men and women differ in their perception of
the work-family interface? How do these differences
change as men and women transition to parenthood,
raise and launch children, and then approach
retirement? No previous studies adequately address
these questions. This landmark study begins to. Data
come from an IBM Global Work and Life Issues Survey
representing 79 countries (N=41,813). Six family
life stage groups were defined: no children and age
35 or less, transition to parenthood, preschool
children, elementary children, teenagers, and empty
nest (age 50+ years and no child dependents).
Using a well-validated model of the work-family
interface differences by gender by each life stage
were identified. Using structural equation modeling
the strengths of the paths were also compared. The
findings indicate that gender differences are
negligible until men and women have children.
Parenting responsibilities are associated with
greater gender differences. These differences
diminish during the empty nest stage. Read this book
for many other interesting, and sometimes unexpected
gender differences in the work-family interface.
