Objective: To introduce the readers to the Journal of Family Research's Special Issue (4/2022) about "work-family conflict from the perspective of the family". Background: Research on work-family conflict rooted in family research and with an explicit focus on family issues has been comparatively rare compared to a more work-centered view. Method: Except for the review article, all contributions of this Special Issue are quantitative analyses of large-scale data from Germany, i.e., the "pairfam"-study, the "LEEP-B3"-study, and the "Growing up in Germany"-survey. Results: The seven studies are innately heterogeneous and show the range in which family research may contribute to the understanding of work-family conflict, and vice versa. Work-family conflict was studied in the context of the transition to parenthood, parenting practices, the composition of working environments, scaling back, mental health, and fertility preferences. Conclusion: Explicitly discussing family issues and their implications for work-family conflict is necessary to understand the interdependencies between family and work, and to pave the way towards a much broader understanding of the antecedents and consequences of work-family conflict in the context of family living.... view less

Fragestellung: Zur Einleitung in das Schwerpunktheft des Journal of Family Research (4/2022) über Vereinbarkeitskonflikte zwischen Familie und Arbeit. Hintergrund: Bisher gibt es nur verhältnismäßig wenige Forschungsarbeiten, die sich aus einer Familienperspektive mit Konflikten zwischen Arbeit und Familie befassen. Methode: Abgesehen von der einführenden Überblicksarbeit handelt es sich bei allen Beiträgen dieses Schwerpunkthefts um quantitative Analysen großer Datensätze, nämlich "pairfam", "LEEP-B3" und „Aufwachsen in Deutschland“. Ergebnisse: Die sieben Studien dieses Schwerpunktheftes untersuchen Vereinbarkeitskonflikte zwischen Arbeit und Familie im Kontext des Übergangs zur Elternschaft, von Erziehungspraktiken, der Zusammensetzung des direkten Arbeitsumfeldes, von Reduzierung der Arbeitsanforderungen, von mentaler Gesundheit und von Fertilitätspräferenzen. Damit zeigen sie das heterogene Spektrum an Fragestellungen auf, das von einer Familienperspektive auf Vereinbarkeitskonflikte profitieren kann. Schlussfolgerung: Die Forschung zu Vereinbarkeitskonflikten zwischen Arbeit und Familie kann stark von einer Familienperspektive profitieren, die nicht nur relevante Variablen kontrolliert, sondern ausdrücklich die Interdependenzen zwischen Familien- und Arbeitsleben thematisiert.... view less
