“…The analyses also focused on a limited number of mediating and moderating variables, and investigating other psychological and behavioral variables may shed further light on the complexities of stress spillover among children and adolescents. In light of research suggesting that spillover may partially explain the relationship between work stress and depressive symptoms among adults (Franche et al 2006;Goodman and Crouter 2009), exploring the mediating role that spillover itself plays between academic stress and later well-being may also be a productive avenue for future research.…”

“…However, perhaps the largest gap in the literature on stress spillover among children and adolescents pertains to factors that may moderate social-academic linkages. There is evidence from the work-family literature that spillover may partially explain the relationship between work stress and depressive symptoms (Franche et al 2006;Goodman and Crouter 2009), suggesting that spillover may have important consequences for later mental health. Assuming that spillover may also have consequences for adolescent wellbeing, investigating moderators is of key importance for understanding the circumstances under which spillover occurs and for identifying individuals who may be more vulnerable to spillover.…”

Daily life mechanisms of stress spillover among early adolescents experiencing academic difficulty

Research has suggested that academic stress may "spillover" into other life domains and have negative psychological or social consequences for children and adolescents outside of school settings, but relatively few investigations have examined mediators and moderators of spillover. The current study explored the mediating role of state affect and the moderating roles of prior academic performance and mood disturbances on spillover in a sample of 131 French adolescents. Participants completed clinical measures of anxiety and depression and participated in a 7-day ambulatory monitoring phase that involved multiple daily assessments of mood, behaviors, and activities. Spillover was observed for family events and subsequent school-related events, as well as between family and leisure events. These associations remained significant when controlling for immediate mood responses, suggesting that state affect does not play a salient mediating role. There was no evidence that spillover was moderated by academic difficulty, anxiety, depression, or gender. Results are discussed in terms of the role that emotional processes may play in spillover phenomena as well as the reciprocal influence that academic and nonacademic events may exert each other.

“…Both acute workrelated stressful experiences as well as more stable structural occupational factors contribute to depressive disorders [42]. For example, a longitudinal study of working mothers with young children found that a less flexible work environment and greater work pressure predicted higher levels of depressive symptoms even 18 months later [43]. However, these effects are not observed for everyone [44].…”

“…A US study found that the relationship between job demands (reduced flexibility and work pressure) and depressive symptoms in a large sample of working mothers (n 0 414) was partially mediated by the mothers' views of their job-to-home negative spillover (Goodman & Crouter, 2009). A study by van Hoof et al (2005) with 730 workers from the Dutch police force explored the link between integration-based difficulties and workers' well-being.…”

Work/life research needs to incorporate consideration of community issues and is rarely conducted in master planned communities (MPCs). To address this gap the present exploratory study aimed to examine the specific work/life integration (WLI) experiences of working mothers residing in an Australian MPC. Fifteen interviews were conducted with 10 working mothers. Data analysis involved thematic coding of interview transcripts. Findings showed that working mothers in the present study had difficulties, similar to those of working mothers who do not live in an MPC, in undertaking work. Coping strategies, such as working parttime, were used to manage the situation. However, more positively the MPC facilitated a convenient lifestyle, enjoyable family life, the establishment of social support networks and offered affordable housing. Thus it enhanced the home and community components of WLI and appeared to enhance overall WLI satisfaction.Keywords: master planned community; working mothers; work/life integration L'intégration vie professionnelle, vie privée et la communauté dans les lotissements planifiés de grande envergure : Qu'est-ce qui a changé ? La recherche sur la vie professionnelle et la vie privée a besoin aussi d'intégrer les problèmes auxquels la communauté fait face et elle est rarement menée dans les lotissements planifiés de grande envergure. Pour combler ce vide, cette étude examine les expériences spécifiques d'intégration de la vie professionnelle et de la vie privée de femmes travailleuses qui résident dans des lotissements planifiés de grande envergure. Cet article est basé sur un entretien avec 10 femmes travailleuses. Dans l'analyse de données, les transcriptions de l'entretien ont été codées. Les conclusions montrent que les femmes travailleuses dans cette étude rencontrent des difficultés, similaires à celles des femmes travailleuses qui n'habitent pas dans des lotissements planifiés de grande envergure, quand elles entreprennent d'exercer une profession. Pour s'en sortir, des stratégies telles que travailler à mi-temps étaient adoptées. Cependant, de façon plus positive, les lotissements planifiés de grande envergure offre un mode de vie adapté, une vie de famille agréable, l'établissement de réseaux de supports sociaux, et des logements accessibles. Ainsi, ils améliorent l'intégration de la vie professionnelle et de la vie privée à travers ses composants tels que la famille et la communauté. Aussi, ils semblent augmenter de façon générale le niveau de satisfaction de l'intégration vie professionnelle et vie privée.Mots clés: lotissements planifiés de grande envergure; femmes travailleuses; intégration vie professionnelle et vie privée *Corresponding author.
