Bouncing back, holding steady, or wiser for wear? Uncovering and predicting trajectories of work–eldercare conflict and enrichment during the COVID-19 pandemic
Dr. Chen is a part of the team that has recently published “Bouncing back, holding steady, or wiser for wear? Uncovering and predicting trajectories of work–eldercare conflict and enrichment during the COVID-19 pandemic” in Journal of Occupational Health Psychology. This study examined changes in the work–eldercare interface among 193 working informal caregivers in Singapore during the COVID-19 pandemic using three waves of data. Work-to-eldercare conflict worsened, while eldercare-to-work conflict partially rebounded and enrichment generally improved. Family-supportive supervisor behaviors and work-supportive family influenced adaptation, with effects varying by resilience, highlighting the importance of workplace and family resources.
