This study investigates the relationship between Work-Family Conflict (WFC) and the individual's experience of burnout by considering the moderating role of a stressful working environment.
The questionnaire holds "Work-Family Conflict" and consists of eight questions adopted from Carlson and Perrewé (1999). "Burnout" consists of three subconstructs, namely "Emotional exhaustion", which carries four questions, "Depersonalization", which has four questions, and "Personal accomplishment", holding three questions adopted from Maslach Burnout Inventory (Maslach and Jackson, 1981). And finally, "Stressful work environment" consists of 10 questions adopted from Gershon (1999). The research instrument was distributed among women police working in Chennai and Kanchipuram regions. The data from 427 women police personnel were collected through a questionnaire using a simple random sampling method.
First, exploratory factor analysis was performed to test the standardization and tested for reliability using Cronbach's alpha test. It found that all loadings are between 0.649 and 0.866, which is satisfactory. Second, for demographic questionnaire items, descriptive statistics were performed. Finally, to find the moderating effects of stressful work environment on the relationship between WFC and the individual's experience of burnout, multiple hierarchical regression analysis was computed.
The results show that WFC positively affects burnout and it has been found that a stressful working environment moderates the relationship. It also supports that individuals experience a high level of burnout when the working environment and WFC are intense.
The result supports that individuals experience high burnout when the working environment and WFC are intense. The study initiated an attempt to explain the mechanism through which a stressful working environment influences burnout levels.
本研究通过考虑压力工作环境的调节作用，调查工作-家庭冲突（WFC）与个体倦怠体验之间的关系。
问卷包含“工作-家庭冲突”部分，由卡尔森和佩雷韦（1999年）提出的八个问题组成。“倦怠”由三个子结构组成，即“情感耗竭”，包含四个问题；“去个性化”，有四个问题；“个人成就感”，包含从马氏倦怠量表（马氏和杰克逊，1981年）采用的三个问题。最后，“压力工作环境”由格申（1999年）提出的10个问题组成。研究工具分发给在金奈和坎奇普尔姆地区工作的女警察。通过问卷调查，采用简单随机抽样方法收集了427名女警察的数据。
首先，进行探索性因素分析以检验标准化情况，并使用克朗巴哈α检验进行信度检验。结果发现所有载荷在0.649至0.866之间，令人满意。其次，对人口统计问卷项目进行描述性统计。最后，为了找出压力工作环境对WFC与个体倦怠体验之间关系的调节作用，进行了多重分层回归分析。
结果表明，WFC对倦怠有正向影响，且已发现压力工作环境调节了这种关系。这也支持了在工作环境和WFC都很强烈时，个体经历高水平倦怠的观点。
结果支持在工作环境和WFC都很强烈时，个体经历高倦怠的观点。该研究开始尝试解释压力工作环境影响倦怠水平的机制。
