“…Instead of theoretically inferring the ordering of our variables, future research may want to empirically confirm the casual ordering of constructs that make up gain spirals as part of work–family facilitation. Furthermore, although self-reports of actor (e.g., work–family support provision) and partner (e.g., creativity) behaviors may have social desirability issues, our approach to group-mean center all predictors should address this concern because it effectively removes between-person confounds such as response biases (Beal, 2015; Gabriel et al, 2020). A second limitation is that although we followed established research convention to use a focal member of a couple as a starting point for research on work–family facilitation (Booth-LeDoux et al, 2020; Carlson, Thompson, Crawford, et al, 2019; Carlson, Thompson, & Kacmar, 2019), collecting all measures from both members of a couple would have allowed for a stronger test of our hypotheses.…”
