Lesbian Couples’ Relationship Quality Across the Transition to Parenthood (2006, background): “This is inconsistent with research that has found an inverse relationship between hours worked and marital quality (Doumas et al., 2003), and research that linked workplace support to lower work-family conflict (Moen & Yu, 2000).”
Gender Differences in the Perception of Work-Life Balance (2010, result): “Also both the genders observe that the boundary between work and leisure is blurred, which concurs with the findings of others (Moen and Yu, 2000).”
Coping with multiple dimensions of work‐family conflict (2003, result): “It is a finding consistent with recent research showing women report more overload and conflict yet employ less effective coping skills than men (Moen and Yu, 2000).”
E-mail as a Source and Symbol of Stress (2011, background): “Instead, researchers document the amount of time that processing e-mail requires and then infer stress by appealing to a large body of research that establishes that working long hours correlates with stress (e.g., Cooper and Marshall 1976, Sparks et al. 1997, Moen and Yu 2000).”
Multiple Social Roles and Well-Being (2004, background): “In the long term, the tension can bring about stress and psychological illness (Cleary and Mechanic, 1983; Bolger et al., 1990; Reifman et al., 1991; Hall, 1992; Glass and Fujimoto, 1994; Lundberg et al., 1994; Ozer, 1995; Doyle and Hind, 1998; Kinnunen and Mauno, 1998; Moen and Yu, 1998; Walters et”
Stress, Social Support, and Workers' Intentions to Leave Their Jobs in Public Child Welfare (2005, background): “The benefits of supervisor support include improvements in job satisfaction (Munn et al., 1996) and quality of life, as well as reduced levels of stress (Moen & Yu, 2000) and turnover (Samantrai, 1992).”
Linkages Between the Work-family Interface and Work, Family, and Individual Outcomes (2002, background): “In addition, an individual’s or family’s choice of strategies is limited by structural conditions such as the nature of available jobs, cognitions such as gender-role norms, and economic need (Moen & Yu, 2000).”
Gender Discrepancies in the Outcomes of Schedule Control on Overtime Hours and Income in Germany (2016, background): “…the introduction of schedule control risks enforcing traditional gender arrangements: women use the flexible measures to reconcile duties outside work with work, while men increase their work effort when time boundaries are relaxed or missing (see also, Moen and Yu, 2000; Gambles et al., 2006).”
Workhours and worklife balance (2008, result): “Reduced hours for one of the spouses were, however, not associated with less worklife conflict, stress, or overload when compared with the situation in which both spouses worked regular hours (53).”
