Dear Colleagues,
Our research team from the University of Heidelberg (Germany) and the University of Fribourg (Switzerland) is preparing a meta-analysis on longitudinal studies of work-family conflict and strain. We include work-to-family conflict and family-to-work conflict. Strain includes variables such as exhaustion, depression, and somatic complaints.
We have completed a search of the published data and are now searching for any unpublished studies to include in our meta-analysis. If you have data with at least two measurement waves that you are willing to share, we would be grateful. Any unpublished raw data or manuscripts, conference papers, working or forthcoming papers, and dissertations that measured work-family conflict and strain are welcome. Your work will be cited in our study.
If the full paper is not available, we would greatly appreciate the following:
- A correlation matrix including work-family conflict at time 1, work-family conflict at time 2, strain at time 1, and strain at time 2
- Sample size
- Sample characteristics (e.g., age, gender, organizational tenure, types of job, and other available demographics)
- Time lag between assessments at time 1 and time 2
- Measures used to assess work-family conflict and strain
- Cronbach's alphas for work-family conflict and strain
- Your study's citation
Please send your papers or the necessary statistics to christoph.nohe@psychologie.uni-heidelberg.de
Thank you very much in advance and best regards,
Christoph Nohe
