Mechanism of Performance Pressure's Two-way Influence on Work-Family Balance

Abstract

Abstract: Based on the work-family resource model and 316 two-point questionnaires, this study uses structural equation model to explore the mechanism of performance pressure's two-way influence on work-family balance, and verifies the mediation function of workplace anxiety and work absorption, as well as the moderation function of prevention and promotion regulatory focus. The results are as follows. Performance pressure is positively related to workplace anxiety, which worsens work-family balance, but it is also positively related to employees' devotion to work, which improves work-family balance; defensive regulatory focus moderates the relationship between performance pressure and workplace anxiety, and moderates the indirect effect of performance pressure on work-family balance through workplace anxiety. However, neither the promotive regulatory focus' moderating effect on the relationship between performance pressure and devotion to work, nor the moderating effect that performance pressure has on the indirect effect on work-family balance through devotion to work is significant.

Key words: performance pressure, workplace anxiety, devotion to work, regulatory focus, work-family balance
