| dc.description.abstract | This study examined the relationship between the presence of work-family conflict and child development, analyzing the intervening variable of marital satisfaction. Participants were 38 married individuals with at least one child between the ages of six and eighteen. Participants were given a questionnaire containing two Work-Family Conflict scales, a Child Development Survey, and the Quality of Marriage Index in addition to a sampling of demographics. Significant correlational results indicated as the level of work-family conflict increased, both marital satisfaction and child development decreased. In addition, correlations found one child development construct predicts children experience fewer problems with their social development as parents have a more satisfactory marriage. However, marital satisfaction was not a significant intervening variable between work-family conflict and child development. | en_US |
