Abstract

This study investigated strain-based work-family conflict as correlate of feeling of reduced personal accomplishment among married female teachers with children. A total of 304 female secondary school teachers between the ages of 26 to 54 years (M= 40.37 and SD =4.09) with educational qualifications ranging from National Certification of Education to Masters of Education Degree were drawn from 24 Government Secondary Schools within Enugu, the capital city of Enugu State in the South-eastern part of Nigeria using criterion sampling technique. A 6-item strain-based work interference with family and 4-item strain-based family interference with work scales drawn from Okonkwo (2011) 32-item Work-Family Conflict Scale, and 8-item feeling of reduced personal accomplishment scale drawn from Maslach and Jackson (1986) 22-item Burnout Inventory were administered. Correlational design was used. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was used as statistical test for data analysis. The findings revealed a significant positive relationship between strain-based work interference with family and feeling of reduced personal accomplishment, r (302) = 0.18, p <.01. Also, a significant positive relationship between family interference with work and feeling of reduced personal accomplishment, r (302) = 0.14, p <.01.
