Sources of Work-Family Conflict: A SINO-U.S. Comparison of the Effects of Work and Family Demands.

Given differences in values about work and family time, we hypothesize that Americans will experience greater family demand, which will have greater impact on work‐family conflict, whereas the Chinese will experience greater work demand, which will have the greater impact on work‐family conflict. The results of a survey of working men and women in the two countries generally supported the hypotheses; however, work demand did not differ significantly between the two countries and did not have a greater effect than family demand on work‐family conflict in China.
