ResumoThis study examined different types of work domain pressures as sources of work-family conflict among two-career couples. Data gathered from a matched sample of 119 men and 119 women who were partners in a two-career relationship provided strong support for the influence of work role stressors on two forms of work-family conflict, time-based conflict and strain-based conflict. The impact of task characteristics and work salience on work-family conflict was somewhat stronger for women than for men. In addition, there were significant interactions between partners' job involvement on men's level of time-based conflict and between partners career priority on men's level of strain-based conflict. The implications of the findings for additional research on work-family conflict were discussed.
