Family relations, 1995•JSTORThis study examines the relationship between work-related coping resources and work-
family role strain for a sample of 116 employed mothers with preschool age children in
group daycare. The results indicate that perceptions of work environment support and
supervisor flexibility, as well as the use of family-oriented benefits, are associated with lower
levels of strain between paid work and family roles. Implications for work-family theory
development, family life educators, and employers are addressed.
