Your work passion travels a long way home: Testing a spillover and crossover model of work passion among dual-earner couples

In this study, we investigate the spillover-crossover effects of two types of work passion (i.e., harmonious and obsessive) for dual-earner couples. Integrating the job demands-resources theory and the spillover-crossover model, we propose that one partner's harmonious work passion indirectly predicts high work engagement and low work burnout for the other partner through positive affect crossover. Similarly, the partner's obsessive work passion indirectly contributes to low work engagement and high work burnout for the other partner through negative stress crossover. We also suggest that perspective taking of the partner strengthens the proposed positive transmissions and mitigates the negative transmissions. We tested the hypotheses by sampling 129 dual-earner couples in the United States at two time points. Results confirmed that one partner's harmonious work passion and obsessive work passion both had indirect effects on the other partner's work burnout and work engagement via the positive crossover of positive affect and the negative crossover of stress, respectively. Our findings also suggested that the partner's perspective taking significantly shaped the spillover-crossover process between harmonious work passion and the partner's work engagement and burnout. We discuss implications for research and practice as well as future research directions.

Magnetic interactions and high-field magnetotransport properties of Ge1-x-ySnxMnyTe epitaxial layers

In this work, we present the structural, magnetic and magnetotransport results of Ge1−x−ySnxMnyTe thin layers with x = 0.076–0.22 and y = 0.051–0.16. The samples were grown via molecular beam epitaxy with thickness ranging from 160 nm to 900 nm. From X-ray diffraction analysis, the layers maintain low symmetry rhombohedral crystal structure inherited from the host lattice. The rhombohedral distortion is well-maintained in alloyed layers even in the sample with the highest Sn and Mn contents, x ≈ 0.22 and y ≈ 0.051. The dc magnetic susceptibility, χdc(T) of all three layers manifests large bifurcation in the field-cooled/zero-field-cooled curves which might represent frustrated magnetic state interpreted as possible cluster-glass order. From high field magnetotransport results, a negative to positive crossover in magnetoresistance is observed for y = 0.11 at T ≈ 36 K. Furthermore, we also present a modified scaling results of anomalous Hall resistivity which displays a large magnitude, ρAH ≈ 4.9 μΩcm at T = 4.2 K for the layer with y = 0.11. The scaling results show that both skew scattering and side-jump mechanisms contribute to the anomalous Hall effect in Ge1−x−ySnxMnyTe samples however; the later seems to be dominant driving mechanism.

Positive crossover: Parent perceived partner responsiveness and health of youth with asthma

AbstractRomantic relationship functioning has implications that extend beyond the romantic dyad. This study tests whether a key positive aspect of relationships, perceived partner responsiveness, can cross over from parents' romantic relationships to children's health and well‐being via parenting behavior. In a sample of 112 youth with asthma and their primary caregivers, when caregivers perceived higher partner responsiveness in their romantic relationship, youth experienced improved self‐reported asthma symptoms, pulmonary functioning, and positive affect. The associations were robust while controlling for parents' relationship conflict and other relevant covariates, except for the pulmonary functioning outcome, which was instead predicted by parents' conflict. However, parenting behavior (i.e., positive and negative parenting) did not appear to mediate these links. This work highlights the importance of positive romantic relationship processes for youth health and well‐being, emphasizing the relevance of clinical intervention work and the need to continue investigating mechanisms through which these processes may be linked.

Transition from paramagnetism to ferromagnetism through additional hole doping of non-magnetic antimony in iron doped tellurium alloy

We have found an enhancement in the magnetic ordering of tellurium as a result of doping it with iron along with an additional doping of a non-magnetic element antimony. A weak ferromagnetism is observed from the magnetization hysteresis which can pave the way for new kinds of magnetic semiconductors. Using the modified solid state approach, we synthesized bulk alloys of Fe-doped tellurium with co-doping of Sb having general form Fe0.05(Te)1−xSbx; x = 0 and 0.03 and analyzed the sample for their structural, electrical and magnetic properties. Electrical resistivity measurements with varying external magnetic field has been carried out and it shows semiconducting nature for both samples. The conduction mechanism in the high temperature region follows small polaron hopping (SPH) model whereas in the low temperature region, variable range hopping (VRH) model is found to fit the data. Traditionally, though tellurium is diamagnetic in nature, x = 0 sample presents itself as a paramagnetic material as evident from the magnetization measurements. On the other hand, x = 0.03 sample has a small hysteresis which is brought about by the substitution of Sb. A negative to positive crossover is observed in the magnetoresistance plot of both samples which can be co-related to transition from variable range hopping mechanism to thermally activated hopping mechanism.

취업모의 일-가정 양립 이점 및 갈등과 초등학교 1학년 자녀의 문제행동 간의 관계 : 부부갈등, 온정적 양육 및 집행기능 곤란의 다중 매개효과

This study identified the multiple mediating roles of marital conflict, maternal warmth, and children’s executive function difficulties in the relationships between working mothers’ work-family enrichment and conflict and first-grade elementary school children’s behavioral problems. Data was collected from 558 first-grade students enrolled in elementary schools and their working mothers, who participated in the Panel Study on Korean Children. A structural equation modeling analysis revealed that although mothers’ work-family enrichment and conflict did not directly influence their children’s behavioral problems, some multiple mediating processes were identified. Specifically, mothers’ work-family enrichment and conflict, respectively, was indirectly related to their children’s behavioral problems through (1) the dual mediation by marital conflict and children’s executive function difficulties; (2) the dual mediation by marital conflict and maternal warmth; (3) the serial mediation by marital conflict, maternal warmth, and children’s executive function difficulties. Furthermore, mothers’ work-family enrichment alone was indirectly related to children’s behavioral problems through (4) the mediation by maternal warmth; (5) the dual mediation by maternal warmth and children’s executive function difficulties. Additionally, the results of this study indicated that the positive spillover and crossover processes of work-family enrichment on family relationships and children were stronger than the negative ones of work-family conflict. Finally, the present study suggests that organizational support is required for enhancing working mothers’ work-family enrichment, and there is a need for counseling programs to help the mothers manage the stress which arises from the process of juggling work and family life.

A dielectrophoresis proof of concept of polystyrene particles and in‐vitro human epidermal keratinocytes migration for wound rejuvenation

AbstractDiabetes affects approximately 170 million people worldwide, is expected to double by 2030, and is a severe problem. Electrical stimulation (ES) via dielectrophoresis (DEP) technique may be an effective alternative in enhancing healing rates in diabetic patients with open ulcers. This research used DEP force (FDEP) to manipulate 3.2, 4.8, 10, and 15 μm polystyrene (PS) particles to predict the migration capability of human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs). A numerical modeling method, MyDEP, was used to predict the interpretation of Clausius–Mossotti factors of PS particles and HEKs. The finite element method computes the electric field intensity and particle trajectory based on DEP and drag forces in their respective medium. DEP experiments on numerous size PS particles and alive HEKs were carried out in a tapered aluminium microelectrode array using a non‐uniform electric field. The distinct PS particles exhibit positive DEP (PDEP), crossover frequency (fXO), and negative DEP (NDEP), whereas the HEKs experience, only NDEP due to its high conductive medium in frequency ranges from 100 kHz to 1 MHz. Finally, the DIPP‐MotionV analysis shows that particle mobility between speed and acceleration is statistically considerable. When an appropriate frequency is applied to HEKs in random locations, the FDEP aligns at the desired target position based on its dielectric properties, which accelerates wound healing in in‐vivo conditions.

Characterizing femoroacetabular impingement in professional Nordic Skiers

ABSTRACT Objective Studies have shown a high prevalence of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) among elite athletes yet there is a paucity of data on FAI in Nordic skiers. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of radiographic FAI in professional Nordic Combined Skiers and Ski jumpers compared to controls and assess functional outcomes including hip range of motion (ROM) and pain in patients with radiographic evidence of FAI compared to those without it. Methods A cohort of elite Nordic Skiers underwent medical history, physical examination, and pelvic radiographs at their visit with a fellowship-trained sports medicine physician. On pelvis radiographs, Alpha angle>55 degrees was deemed cam-positive, and positive crossover signs, Tönnis<0, or LCEA>40 were deemed pincer positive. Further stratification was performed by sex, ski event type, hip pain, presence of cam lesions, and presence of pincer lesions. Spearman correlation matrix was performed to measure the association between radiographic measurements and ROM. Results Nineteen Nordic skiers and nineteen age, sex, and BMI matched controls were included in the study. There were no significant differences in age, sex, BMI, and hip pain between groups. While Nordic skiers demonstrated decreased ROM bilaterally on external rotation compared to controls, skiers had larger ROM bilaterally on extension, abduction, adduction compared to controls. Skiers were significantly more likely to have bilateral crossover sign and alpha angles>55 compared to controls. Subgroup analysis showed that Cam positive patients had higher flexion and adduction ROM and pincer positive patients had significantly higher flexion and abduction ROM compared to patients without cam and pincer lesions respectively. Patients with hip pain had significantly lower right hip abduction ROM compared to patients without hip pain. No significant correlations were seen between radiographic measurements and ROM. Conclusion Similar to other elite ‘hip heavy’ sport athletes, Nordic skiers gave a notably higher prevalence of radiographic cam and pincer type morphology and significantly higher ROM compared to nonathletic controls. Clinicians evaluating Nordic skiers should be aware of these baseline findings with respect to a possible elevated long-term risk of symptomatic FAI in these athletes as well as other conditions related to radiographic FAI.

It takes a village: How organizational support for adoption positively affects employees and their families

Extending the integration of conservation of resources theory with the spillover–crossover model, we broaden the scope of types of organizational support by examining the influence of organizational support for adoption (OSFA) as a work resource that could benefit employees, their spouse, and their adopted child. Specifically, we examine how this resource of OSFA contributes to job incumbent work–family enrichment (WFE) and indirectly to a work outcome (i.e., affective commitment) and spills over to impact family outcomes (i.e., attachment, relationship tension, and family functioning). Further, we examine the crossover to the spouse through positive crossover transmission to his/her commitment to the job incumbent’s organization and his/her family outcomes. Using a matched sample of 592 couples that had adopted a child, we found that the resource of OSFA indirectly influences the job incumbent’s work and family outcomes as expected. Further, we found OSFA indirectly influences the spouse’s commitment to the job incumbent’s organization and the spouse’s family outcomes through WFE and positive crossover transmission. Evidence of the content and construct validity of OSFA is also presented. Implications, both theoretical and practical, and suggestions for future research are discussed.Practitioner points Employees who feel supported in their adoption by their organization are more committed to their organization. Organizations that provide support for adoptive employees indirectly influence their spouses’ commitment to the employees’ organization. Adoptive employees’ positive work experiences that result from organizational support for adoption spillover into their family domain. Children who are adopted can benefit indirectly from their parents’ employing organization when that organization supports the adoption in tangible ways.

From Teachers’ Work Engagement to Pupils’ Positive Affect: a Weekly Diary Study on the Role of Pupils’ Autonomous Motivation

The main purpose of the present study was to investigate whether there is a crossover effect from teacher’s general (trait-level) work engagement to their pupils’ weekly positive affect in school and to examine whether pupils’ weekly autonomous motivation for school functions as an underlying mechanism that may explain this crossover effect. Building upon the self-determination theory and the emotion contagion theory, we argue that teachers’ general work engagement can be a strong resource for pupils, which can foster their psychological investment and interest in school-related activities, skills, and tasks (i.e. autonomous motivation), and, in turn, their positive affect. To test our hypotheses, we employed a weekly diary methodology by following 50 teachers and their 916 pupils in six different countries for three consecutive work weeks, which yielded 2735 reports from pupils and their teachers. The results of multilevel modeling provided support for the shypothesised research model. When teachers were generally more engaged in their work, their pupils reported more weekly positive affect in school, and this positive crossover effect was mediated by pupils’ weekly autonomous motivation for school. These findings extend current literature by revealing the potential underlying mechanism that can explain how teachers’ work engagement transmits to pupils’ positive affect in school.

Direct evidence for crossover and chromatid interference in meiosis of two plant hybrids (Lolium multiflorum×Festuca pratensis and Allium cepa×A. roylei).

Crossing over, in addition to its strictly genetic role, also performs a critical mechanical function, by bonding homologues in meiosis. Hence, it is responsible for an orderly reduction of the chromosome number. As such, it is strictly controlled in frequency and distribution. The well-known crossover control is positive crossover interference which reduces the probability of a crossover in the vicinity of an already formed crossover. A poorly studied aspect of the control is chromatid interference. Such analyses are possible in very few organisms as they require observation of all four products of a single meiosis. Here, we provide direct evidence of chromatid interference. Using in situ probing in two interspecific plant hybrids (Lolium multiflorum×Festuca pratensis and Allium cepa×A. roylei) during anaphase I, we demonstrate that the involvement of four chromatids in double crossovers is significantly more frequent than expected (64% versus 25%). We also provide a physical measure of the crossover interference distance, covering ~30-40% of the relative chromosome arm length, and show that the centromere acts as a barrier for crossover interference. The two arms of a chromosome appear to act as independent units in the process of crossing over. Chromatid interference has to be seriously addressed in genetic mapping approaches and further studies.

Larger Acetabular Labrum Is Associated With Hip Dysplasia, Joint Incongruence, and Clinical Symptoms

To evaluate the association of labral length with acetabular morphology and clinical symptoms. Patients treated at our hip joint clinic between January 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively enrolled in the study. Our sample included patients who received a diagnosis of one or more of the following: hip labral tear, femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and developmental dysplasia of the hip. Patients with osteoarthritis and/or osteonecrosis were excluded. Bilateral labral length was measured as the distance from the acetabular rim to the edge of the labrum at the level of the central coronal T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scan cross-referenced to the axial plane (3- to 9-o'clock position). The lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) and acetabular roof obliquity (ARO) were evaluated with plain radiographs. An LCEA of 25° or less was defined as developmental dysplasia of the hip, whereas a positive crossover sign in the presence of an LCEA of 30° or greater, an LCEA greater than 40°, or acetabular inclination lower 0° was defined as pincer FAI. An alpha angle greater than 50° or head-neck offset lower 8 mm was considered cam FAI. The severity of hip symptoms was evaluated bilaterally using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association pain scale, on which hips scoring full points (i.e., a perfect score) were defined as asymptomatic whereas hips with all other scores were considered symptomatic. We used simple linear regression to examine the correlations of labral length with the LCEA and ARO. Labral length was also compared according to patient hip symptom status using the Mann-Whitney U test. The study included 102 patients (14 with bilateral symptoms and 88 with unilateral symptoms). Labral length was strongly correlated with the LCEA (r= -0.612, P < .001) and ARO (r= 0.635, P < .001). Additionally, patients with symptomatic hips had significantly larger labra (9.5 ± 3.0 mm) than those with asymptomatic hips (7.9 ± 2.1 mm, P= .004). Acetabular labral length is significantly greater in dysplastic, irregularly congruent, symptomatic hips. Level Ⅳ, retrospective cross-sectional study.

Positive crossover loyalty shifts or negative temporal changes? The evolution of shopping mechanism in the O2O era

PurposeThis paper aims to examine how customers encounter consumption-based evolution between mobile and offline platforms together with temporal and crossover effects. Counter to research on customer satisfaction theory, which shows that satisfaction directly affects loyalty, the authors show that when shopping between mobile and offline platforms, customers differently evaluate loyalty compared to the traditional satisfaction and loyalty approach. Also, customers differently evaluate three types of service quality from online to offline (O2O) platforms and response dynamically to firm satisfaction and loyalty.Design/methodology/approachThis study tests temporal, carryover and crossover effects using longitudinal data sets.FindingsFrom crossover loyalty shifts, the findings show that the relationship between offline provider satisfaction (OS) and mobile provider loyalty (ML) during consumption periods is consistently significant with similar impact. However, mobile provider satisfaction (MS) during the same periods does not impact offline provider loyalty (OL) in the same manner, but differs considerably in terms of pattern of influence. Specifically, the findings show that this crossover effect increases over time even though statistical impact is insignificant. Thus, the carryover loyalty shift has a positive impact when it originally occurs in the offline platform but differs significantly when it originates via the mobile platform. Practical implications – this study offers valuable guidance to managers on how O2O platform-centric firms try to enhance satisfaction with consumption system that links to three types of service quality and loyalty.Research limitations/implicationsThis study offers valuable insights into offline and ML. This is seen, however, as an experimental study and further research using the same method would enable cross-cultural comparators.Practical implicationsInsights can be drawn from the findings, enabling comparisons relative to service quality-satisfaction-loyalty linkage across dual platforms. The idea of evolution and progression over time is particular pertinent to business practice assuming data sets are gathered, maintained and analyzed.Originality/valueInsights can be used from the research findings, including but not limited to comparing the service quality-satisfaction-loyalty linkage across dual platforms and providing firms with an explanation of temporal evolution.

DIFFERENCES IN RADIOGRAPHIC MEASUREMENTS ON STANDING VERSUS SUPINE PELVIC RADIOGRAPHS

Background:Accurate pelvic radiographic measurements is of clear clinical importance, as these measurements can drive the indications for surgery, the surgical approach utilized, and/or the degree of correction during hip preservation surgery. Currently, there are a large number of measurements available and reported on the literature when referencing anterior-posterior (AP) pelvic radiographs. However, there is no standardization of whether these pelvic radiographs are obtained in the standing or supine position.Hypothesis/Purpose:Standing vs. Supine radiographs, obtained in the same patient, will result in different value for standard radiographic measurements used in making hip pathology diagnoses.Methods:All new patients who presented for evaluation of hip pain between September 2016 and July 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion criteria included age 18-50, no prior hip surgery/injury, and both standing and supine AP pelvis radiographs dated within 2 years of each other. Measurements were obtained on 26 radiographs (52 hips), blinded to patient demographics and standing versus supine radiograph. Measurements included minimum joint space, lateral center edge angle (LCEA), acetabular depth, acetabular inclination, Tönnis Grade, crossover sign, posterior wall sign, ischial spine sign.Results:Standing films resulted in significantly lower LCEA and acetabular depth measurements, and higher acetabular inclination. Supine measurements for crossover sign were 5.69 times more likely to be positive than standing measurements. Similarly, supine measurements for ischial spine were 7.93 times more likely to be positive (see Table 1).Conclusion:Based on our study, supine films are almost 6 times more likely to give a positive crossover sign and almost 8 times more likely to give a positive ischial spine sign than a standing film in the same patient. Additionally, LCEA, acetabular depth will be lower and acetabular inclination will be higher on standing films. As such, our recommendation is to obtain standing AP pelvis radiographs to obtain the most accurate pelvic radiographic measurements in hip preservation patients.Tables:Table 1.Radiographic measurements on standing and supine AP pelvis radiographs.

Tunable positive magnetoresistance and crossover from weak antilocalization to weak localization transition in half-Heusler compounds RPtBi (R = lanthanide)

We report the observation of large tunable positive magnetoresistance (MR) effects in magnetic lanthanide half-Heusler compounds RPtBi (R = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Tm). The value of MR shows a great enhancement from 41% to 1740% by replacing R from Tb to Tm at 2 K under a magnetic field of 9 T. Moreover, a transition of MR from weak antilocalization to weak localization is clearly confirmed when the lanthanide R changed from Tm to Tb. We attribute this transition to gradually enhanced spin-dependent scattering in these magnetic lanthanide half-Heusler compounds RPtBi.

I see you in me, and me in you

PurposeBased on the theory of crossover, the purpose of this paper is to explore the limited but growing body of research on positive crossover, wherein the authors investigated the direct and indirect crossover of work passion between the dyadic setting of leader and followers. The authors hypothesized that the leader’s (follower’s) work passion influence follower’s (leader’s) work passion through direct crossover phenomena (i.e. crossover via empathy). In the study, the authors also examined the underlying indirect crossover mechanism of leader’s (follower’s) work passion via personal identification – the process by which individuals (supervisors and subordinates) realize cognitive overlap between the self and other over time in a relationship. In an attempt to fully understand the crossover of leader’s (follower’s) work passion, the authors scrutinized the pattern of leader–follower relationship quality, which has the capacity to moderate the direct and indirect crossover of work passion from leader to follower and vice versa.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted two independent studies and collected a time-lagged data from the dyadic settings of a large trade multinational company (n=77 supervisor and 373 subordinates) and a large manufacturing multinational company (n=89 supervisor and 411 subordinates) situated in Anhui province of China to test the authors’ moderated mediation model of work passion.FindingsAs expected the authors found support for all the authors’ hypothesized relationships. Specifically, the results provide support for the notion of direct and indirect crossover of work passion within leader–follower dyads. Moreover, the authors’ findings also support the moderated mediation model of direct and indirect crossover of work passion.Originality/valueOverall, this study provides a potential way to stimulate work passion in employees (leader and followers) from the perspective of their relationship quality with each other. Moreover, implications for theory, research and practice with prospective future research topics are discussed.

The positive spillover and crossover of paternity leave use: A dyadic longitudinal analysis

Paternity leave policies are gaining increased recognition from researchers and policymakers for being an instrumental tool that can have a positive impact on individuals, families, and societies. In this study, we estimate the effect of Korean fathers' paternity leave use on mothers' family relationship satisfaction using dyadic longitudinal data. Applying a spillover-crossover theoretical framework, we predict that fathers who use paternity leave (T1) experience a positive spillover manifested in increased life satisfaction (T2) and that this process will be mediated by an increase in their job satisfaction. In turn, this will “crossover” to positively affect mothers' family relationship satisfaction (T3). We further propose that gender role agreement will moderate this relationship. Using nationally representative longitudinal panel data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS), which follows individuals and families on an annual basis, we find that fathers' use of paternity leave is positively associated with their life satisfaction and that this is mediated by an increase in father's job satisfaction. Further, fathers' life satisfaction mediates the relationship between the use of paternity leave and mothers' family relationship satisfaction. We also find support for the moderating role of gender role agreement. We do not find any support for a direct link between paternity leave use and mothers' family relationship satisfaction. We conclude that taking paternity leave has a positive association with beneficial outcomes for fathers, mothers, and families as a whole.

Influence of orbital two-channel Kondo effect on anomalous Hall effect in ferrimagnetic composites of LaNiO3 and CoFe2O4

In this report, we have investigated the magnetoresistance (MR) and Hall effect of the ferrimagnetic composites containing LaNiO3 and CoFe2O4 (CFO) (with CFO content 15% and 20%) which exhibit orbital two-channel Kondo (2CK) effect and therefore pronounced resistivity upturn at low temperature. Both composites manifest a negative to positive crossover in MR with increasing temperature. The MR is described by the Khosla and Fisher model of spin fluctuations scattering of conduction electrons and the two-band theory based on hybridized p-d sub-bands. The Hall resistivity of the composites consists of both ordinary and anomalous part. The negative sign of the ordinary Hall coefficient suggests electrons as the dominating charge carriers. The coefficient of anomalous Hall resistivity () follows the scaling relation () with longitudinal resistivity () at high temperature above the resistivity upturn. However, at low temperature shows non-monotonous behaviour and deviates from the scaling relation where orbital 2CK effect takes place. More detailed study below the resistivity upturn of the composite with 20% CFO reveals that this deviation occurs around the Kondo temperature. This breakdown of scaling relation around the Kondo temperature indicates the possible influence of orbital 2CK on the anomalous Hall effect.

Spillover and crossover of work resources: A test of the positive flow of resources through work–family enrichment

SummaryIn their seminal model of work–family enrichment, Greenhaus and Powell (2006) theorized five categories of work resources to have an impact on work–family enrichment. Using a matched set of 351 dual‐career spouses, we explored how these unique work resources contribute to work–family enrichment and how they spill over to shape job incumbents' family outcomes and cross over to spouse outcomes. Results support indirect effects for the work resources of developmental experiences, supervisor support, schedule control, and self‐efficacy, but not salary, on marital satisfaction and family functioning through the job incumbent's work–family enrichment. In addition, we found support for the crossover of these indirect effects to the spouse through the spouse's positive crossover transmission, which facilitated the spouse's marital satisfaction and commitment to the job incumbent's organization. Our results suggest that multiple work resources have an impact on work–family enrichment and that the flow of positive work resources through work–family enrichment spills over to impact outcomes for the job incumbent and crosses over to the spouse.

Family, Work, and Spatial Mobility: The Influence of Commuting on the Subjective Well-Being of Couples

Previous research shows that commuting is often accompanied by increased stress, exhaustion and less time for partners and children. On the basis of the life course approach and work-life balance theory, we argue that these negative outcomes also influence the dynamics of the social relationships of individuals who live together in the same household. Most research has focused on the commuter, whereas less is known regarding how commuting affects the subjective well-being of other household members, in this case, the partner. Our paper contributes to this research gap by analysing the interdependencies of parents who commute in regard to their overall and domain-specific well-being. We use pooled data from three waves of the German Family Panel, which includes standardised information related to working conditions and job-related mobility as well as family dynamics from both parents’ perspectives. The resulting subsample has N = 2443 dyads in families. Our dyadic analysis shows negative spillover effects of commuting times on all included measures of subjective well-being, but only for mothers. Moreover, there are two crossover effects: a negative crossover effect from mothers commuting on fathers’ satisfaction with family life and a positive crossover effect of fathers commuting on mothers’ satisfaction with social contacts outside the family (i.e. friends). Overall, the findings indicate that mothers own commuting works as a more general burden, whereas fathers seem to suffer more from their partner’s commuting time than vice versa.

A closer look at the positive crossover between supervisors and subordinates: The role of home and work engagement

How can we explain the crossover of positive experiences from supervisors to their subordinates? Drawing on crossover research and social learning theory (SLT), our main goal in this study is to explore mechanisms and boundary conditions to understand how positive crossover occurs from supervisors to their subordinates. We focus on the nature and foundations of positive crossover in the domains of work and home, and explore the downstream consequences for subordinates’ domain-specific outcomes. Using matched supervisor–subordinate data, the results of multi-level analyses demonstrated that perceived organization support (POS) of subordinates does not impact the positive association between supervisors’ and subordinates’ work engagement. However, family supportive supervisor behaviours (FSSBs), as perceived by subordinates, strengthen the positive association between supervisors’ and subordinates’ home engagement. Importantly, subordinates’ work and home engagement explains why supervisors’ state of engagement in work and home domains, respectively, influences subordinates’ functioning in work and home domains, underscoring a trickle-down model. We contribute to crossover research through demonstrating that crossover occurs from supervisors to their subordinates in work and family domains. Firstly, we highlight the role of relational mechanisms as boundary conditions of crossover process. Secondly, we extend the understanding of how crossover impacts on subordinates’ key outcomes at work and home. Thirdly, we expand crossover research in an understudied context, Chile. In doing so, we contribute to the literature on hierarchical market economies, through providing further insights on the operation of interpersonal ties and relations in such contexts.
