Abstract
In an attempt to explore work-family conflict and the stress-buffering effects of husband support and coping behavior, parental demands for the care of young children, work-family conflict, husband support, coping behavior (work-role and family-role redefinition), and life strain were assessed for 131 Japanese married working women. Hierarchical multiple regressions indicated that parental demands were related to work-family conflict, which in turn was related to life strain, thereby indicating a causal chain linking parental demands, work-family conflicts, and life strain. Husband support buffered the relationship between parental demands and work-family conflict. Family-role redefinition buffered the relationship between work-family conflict and life strain. Theoretical and practical implications for work-family conflict and coping behavior of married working women are discussed.
