Depression is increasing worldwide. Some previous studies have explored the impact of work-family conflict on depressive symptoms of married working women. However, little is known about the moderating relationship underlying them.
This study aims to determine the moderating effects of marriage satisfaction and organizational gender discrimination climate in the relationship between work-family conflict and depressive symptoms of married working women in Korea.
A cross-sectional study was conducted using the data of the 8th Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Families (KLoWF). The data of 1,816 married working women employed and paid by an individual or an enterprise were analyzed.
The work-family conflict had a significant effect on depressive symptoms of married working women. In the dynamics between work-family conflict and depressive symptoms, no significant moderating effect of marriage satisfaction was found. On the contrary, the organizational gender discrimination climate displayed a moderating effect on the relationship between work-family conflict and depressive symptoms.
Nursing strategies in the workplace or community are needed so that married working women can cope positively and actively between work-family conflicts and maintain healthy mental health. To this end, gender role awareness education should be prioritized to improve awareness of gender discrimination in the workplace. In addition, nursing interventions such as linking local or government support and information delivery should be provided so that married working women can be consulted about situations related to work-family conflicts or gender discrimination climate.
抑郁症在全球范围内呈上升趋势。此前一些研究探讨了工作-家庭冲突对已婚职业女性抑郁症状的影响。然而，对于两者之间潜在的调节关系却知之甚少。
本研究旨在确定婚姻满意度和组织性别歧视氛围在韩国已婚职业女性工作-家庭冲突与抑郁症状关系中的调节作用。
采用第八次韩国女性与家庭纵向调查（KLoWF）的数据进行横断面研究。分析了1816名受雇于个人或企业并获得报酬的已婚职业女性的数据。
工作-家庭冲突对已婚职业女性的抑郁症状有显著影响。在工作-家庭冲突与抑郁症状的动态关系中，未发现婚姻满意度有显著的调节作用。相反，组织性别歧视氛围对工作-家庭冲突与抑郁症状之间的关系显示出调节作用。
需要在工作场所或社区采取护理策略，以便已婚职业女性能够积极应对工作-家庭冲突，并保持健康的心理健康。为此，应优先开展性别角色意识教育，以提高对工作场所性别歧视的认识。此外，应提供诸如联系当地或政府支持及信息传递等护理干预措施，以便已婚职业女性能够就与工作-家庭冲突或性别歧视氛围相关的情况进行咨询。
