Highlights
Breitkreuz, and James (2013) in their article of When Family Members Are Business Owners: Is Entrepreneurship Good for Families?, presented agenda for future research and under that they showed the directions for studies of work family integration by showing that there is considerable space for family scholars to contribute to the collective understanding of whether and how business ownership facilitates or detracts from work family integration
This study demonstrated that family-to-work conflict increases social networks and reduces job satisfaction for business owners and that being a family business moderates the effects of family-to-work conflict on job satisfaction and social networks
Five articles are found with some conversation on work-family conflict in their literature review by showing that work-family conflict is worth to study pertinent to family business
Summary
The research material is conducted by analyzing all articles with “family business” (or “family firm”), and “Work-family conflict” or “Work- family Enrichment” (or Facilitation, Positive spillover, Enhancement) or “Workfamily Balance” or “Work-family fit”. The backward citation method was used with key words to select the journals with higher reference within selected terms. With this method, eight journals (Family Business Review, Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, Journal of Business Venturing, International Small Business Journal, Journal of Family Business Strategy, Family Relations, Journal of Family and Economic Issues, Journal of family Issues) were identified. All the identified articles were screened in order to identify how work-family issues are tackled in family business research. This process resulted in 37 articles included at least some information on workfamily interface. The selection was backed by Chrisman, Chua, Kellermanns, Matherne, and Debicki (2008) who evaluated and ranked management journals as outlets for family business
