Includes bibliographical references (leaves 59-66). The aim of this study is to identify and examine the antecedents of work-family enrichment. Data gathered from 221 participants employed at a South African FMCG enterprise showed that two personality characteristics, positive affectivity and self-efficacy helped predict both directions of work-family enrichment while work commitment and work engagement were shown to be significant for an individual experiencing work to family enrichment. Social support from various sources was examined (i.e. family, supervisors and perceived organizational support). Family support and perceived organizational support helped predict greater family to work enrichment and work to family enrichment respectively, yet contrary to expectations, supervisory support was not shown to increase work to family enrichment. Importantly, this study confirmed the multidimensionality of the work-family enrichment scale. 2014-07-31T12:33:35Z 2014-07-31T12:33:35Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5832 eng application/pdf Organisational Psychology Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town |
