Abstract: This study examined whether the frequency of child-related activities was associated with parents' own work demands and those of their partners. In addition to parental paid working hours, we considered the parents' organizational culture and experienced job insecurity. Moreover, we differentiated between child-related routine and interactive activities. Using self-collected data on 639 Dutch couples with children, we found that paid working hours were consistently associated with a lower frequency of childrel… Show more

“…Consistent with findings of prior investigations (e.g., Cinamon et al, 2007;Costigan et al, 2003;Greenberger et al, 1994;Repetti, 1994;Roeters et al, 2010), we found negative effects of work-family conflict on parenting (perceived sense of competence, involvement, quality of attachment, and relational frustration). We additionally found evidence of the positive effects of work-family enrichment on parenting experiences; indeed, we believe these findings extend the relevant literature in that most of the extant research has adopted the work-stress perspective that emphasizes the detrimental effects of parental work and largely neglects consideration of the positive work-family spillover effects on parenting experiences.…”

“…These reciprocal influences are relevant to assess in dual-earner couples with children, as both members of the couple face challenging demands from both work and family. Indeed, such influences augment the risks of emotional contagion from one member's work role to the other member's family role, namely parenting (Barnett & Gareis, 2007;Keizer & Schenk, 2012;Roeters et al, 2010). It is therefore likely, that one member's experience of workfamily conflict or enrichment will link with the other couple member's parenting experience.…”
