The purpose of this study was to understand the role of coping and personality in the experience of work-family conflict. The research on coping and work-family conflict is limited and to my knowledge, no study has examined coping as a possible mediator of the relationship between personality and work-family conflict. The sample consisted of 291 employees from diverse industries. As expected, neuroticism was related to higher levels of family-to-work conflict (FIW), work-to-family conflict (WIF), strain-based work-family conflict (SWFC) and time-based work-family conflict (TWFC). In partial support of hypotheses, an internal locus of control was negatively related to SWFC and FIW (and was not related to TWFC and WIF). Contrary to expectations, extraversion was unrelated to the four outcome measures. The hypothesis that active coping would be related to lower levels of work-family conflict was not supported. However, as expected, passive coping was related to higher levels of all four outcome measure (SWFC, TWFC, WIF and FIW). Neuroticism was related to higher levels of SWFC and FIW through increased levels of passive coping. None of the other mediating tests were significant (i.e., for locus of control or extraversion). Finally, it was hypothesized that the adaptiveness of coping mechanisms would differ depending on the circumstances (e.g., degree of control) and for whom (e.g., personality characteristics) a coping strategy was used. In this study, none of the moderators were found to be significant (the interaction between coping choice and perceived controllability of the situation, as well as the interaction between personality and coping choice). The theoretical and practical implications are presented in the discussion section.
