Sažetak
The multidimensional measures of Work-Family Conflict (Carlson et al., 2000) and Work-Family Enrichment Scale (Carlson et al., 2006) assess the negative and positive sides of work-family interface. Work-family conflict is a form of inter-role conflict, in which two domains are mutually incompatible to some extent, while work- family enrichment refers to the enhanced role performance in one domain as a function of resources gained from another domain. Both scales acknowledge work-to-family and family- to-work directions. This study aimed to test the factor structure, reliability, and divergent validity of the two instruments in a Croatian sample of fathers. The participants, 170 fathers of infants, completed an online questionnaire which included the Work-Family Conflict Scale (WFCS), the Work-Family Enrichment Scale (WFES), and a set of questions on demographic data.The results of the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) for the Work-Family Conflict Scale showed the best fit for the six-factor model. Therefore, this scale consists of time, strain, and behaviour-based dimensions for both workto- family and family-to- work aspects. The internal consistency reliability coefficients were high for the six subscales of the WFCS (α = .79 - .92). The CFA for the Work-Family Enrichment Scale also had a very good fit for the six-factor model. The WFES comprised development, affect, and capital-based work-to-family subscales and development, affect, and efficiency-based family-to-work subscales. The internal consistency reliability coefficients were very high for all subscales of the WFES (α = .94 - .98). Finally, the correlational analysis between all subscales from Work-Family Conflict and Work-Family Enrichment scales suggested that these two measures share only a minor proportion of variance. Therefore, we can conclude that the Croatian version of both the WFCS and WFES are valid and reliable instruments that capture different aspects of the work-family interface.
