Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective In this study, we examined the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between social support and work–life balance. Method Questionnaires administered face-to-face were completed by 434 volunteer participants working in the service sector in the Kocaeli province of Turkey who were recruited through convenience sampling. Structural Equation Model was performed on the collected data. Analyses were performed using IBM SPSS 21 and AMOS 22. Results Findings showed that resilience had a mediating role in the relationship between social support and work–life balance, and the three variables were positively related to each other. Conclusions Social support primarily affects the resilience levels of individuals, which, in turn, affects work–life balance. The increase in the level of social support of individuals also increases their resilience, and this positive change in the level of resilience positively affects work-life balance. The findings of the study are discussed on the basis of the relevant literature.KEY POINTS What is already known about this topic: (1) Recent changes in organisations and employee demographics have made work–life balance more important. (2) Ensuring work–life balance is important for both organisations and individuals. (3) Both personal and social determinants play an important role in ensuring work–life balance. What this topic adds: (1) There are few studies showing the effect of resilience on the relationship between social support and work–life balance. (2) Social support is considered one of the protective factors of resilience. (3) Resilience is considered a personality trait that is effective in maintaining work–life balance.

复原力在社会支持和工作与生活平衡关系中的中介作用
摘要目的在本研究中,我们检验了韧性在社会支持和工作生活平衡关系中的中介作用。方法对434名在土耳其科卡埃利省服务业工作的志愿者进行面对面问卷调查。对收集的数据进行结构方程模型。使用IBM SPSS 21和AMOS 22进行分析。结果研究结果表明,复原力在社会支持和工作生活平衡之间的关系中起着中介作用,三个变量之间呈正相关。结论社会支持主要影响个体的适应力水平,而适应力水平又影响工作与生活的平衡。个人社会支持水平的提高也提高了他们的复原力,复原力水平的这种积极变化对工作与生活的平衡产生了积极影响。在相关文献的基础上对研究结果进行了讨论。关键点关于这个话题已经知道的:(1)最近组织和员工人口结构的变化使工作与生活的平衡变得更加重要。(2) 确保工作与生活的平衡对组织和个人都很重要。(3) 个人和社会决定因素在确保工作与生活平衡方面都发挥着重要作用。本主题补充道:(1)很少有研究表明韧性对社会支持和工作生活平衡之间关系的影响。(2) 社会支持被认为是恢复力的保护因素之一。(3) 韧性被认为是一种有效维持工作与生活平衡的人格特征。
