Sosyal problem çözme becerilerinin iş-aile-özel hayat çatışması ve psikolojik iyi olma durumu ilişkisi üzerindeki düzenleyici rolü

The present study aimed at examining the moderating effects of Social Problem Solving Skills (SPSS) in the relationship between Work-Family-Personal Life Conflict (WFPC) and psychological well-being (anxiety, burnout, depression and life satisfaction) in Turkish white collar employee sample. Gender differences in the moderating role of SPSS in the WFPC and psychological well-being relationship were also explored. Data were collected from 448 white-collar employees having at least one child. It was expected that Rational Problem Solving (RPS) style had a positive effect on the relationship between WFPC and psychological well-being, and Impulsivity Carelessness Style (ICS) and Avoidance Style (AS) had a negative effect on the relationship between WFPC and psychological well-being. Moderated multiple regression analyses revealed that RPS moderated the relationship between WFPC and burnout. As hypothesized, subjects who had high WFPC and used high RPS had less burnout compared to ones that used low RPS. Contrary to what was expected, people who had high WFPC and used high ICS experienced less anxiety. No gender differences were found. This study is expected to contribute to the literature by examining the moderating role of SPSS as a coping mechanism in WFPC and psychological well-being relationship by using Social Problem Solving Inventory-Revised (SPSI-R).Keywords: work-family-personal life conflict, work-family conflict, social problem solving, coping, anxiety, burnout, depression, life satisfaction, psychological well-being.
