Abstract

Most multiple-role research has focused primarily on the interdependencies of the work and family domains, and has largely ignored the school domain. Yet, for a sizeable portion of employees, the impact of the school role may be substantial. In this study, we examine whether psychological involvement in graduate school increases school-work facilitation (SWF). Further, we suggest that employers and schools can provide social support resources that will strengthen the relationship between psychological involvement and SWF. Our results extend Job Demands-Resource (JD-R) theory and suggest that the interaction between challenge demands from the school domain and social support resources in the school and work domains produce stronger levels of SWF. Specifically, coworker support, classmate support, and supervisor support strengthened the relationship between psychological school involvement and SWF. Professor support did not moderate the relationship.
