Slide 1: Purpose of Study
Title: Family Responsibility Discrimination, Power Distance, and Emotional Exhaustion: When and Why are There Gender Differences in Work-Life Conflict?
The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors contributing to gender differences in work-life conflict, specifically focusing on family responsibility discrimination, power distance, and emotional exhaustion.
By examining these variables, we aim to understand the underlying mechanisms that explain why women often experience higher levels of work-life conflict compared to men.
This study aims to contribute to the existing literature on work-life conflict and gender disparities in the workplace, providing insights that can inform organizational policies and practices to promote work-life balance and gender equality.
Slide 2: Theoretical Background
Work-Life Conflict: Work-life conflict refers to the challenges individuals face when trying to balance the demands of work and personal life, such as family responsibilities and personal well-being.
Gender Differences: Research consistently shows that women tend to experience higher levels of work-life conflict compared to men. Understanding the factors contributing to these gender differences is essential for promoting gender equality in the workplace.
Family Responsibility Discrimination: Family responsibility discrimination refers to unfair treatment or bias against employees based on their caregiving responsibilities, often affecting women more than men. It can manifest as limited career advancement opportunities, unequal pay, or negative performance evaluations.
Power Distance: Power distance represents the extent to which individuals accept and expect hierarchical differences within organizations. High power distance cultures tend to have more unequal power distributions and may contribute to gender disparities in work-life conflict.
Emotional Exhaustion: Emotional exhaustion refers to feelings of being emotionally drained and depleted, often resulting from prolonged stress or work-related demands. It is a significant outcome of work-life conflict and can have detrimental effects on individuals’ well-being.
Slide 3: Hypotheses
Hypothesis 1: Family responsibility discrimination will positively predict work-life conflict, particularly for women. We expect that women will experience higher levels of work-life conflict compared to men due to discriminatory practices and biases related to family responsibilities.
Hypothesis 2: Power distance will moderate the relationship between family responsibility discrimination and work-life conflict. Specifically, we predict that in cultures with high power distance, the positive association between family responsibility discrimination and work-life conflict will be stronger.
Hypothesis 3: Emotional exhaustion will mediate the relationship between work-life conflict and gender differences in well-being. We expect that the higher levels of work-life conflict experienced by women will lead to increased emotional exhaustion, which, in turn, will contribute to gender disparities in well-being outcomes.
