Abstract

Researches on inter-role conflict between work and family were initially carried out in developed countries with individualistic cultures based on western cultural contexts. However, currently, there has been an increasing number of researches on the same topic conducted in Asian countries with its collectivistic cultural contexts. One of the direct consequences of Work-family conflict is the emergence of psychological strain, thus leading to the intention to quit.
