摘要：The reciprocal interaction between work and family is an important issue currently, asdemands in both contexts have increased in the present times. In educational system, theexpansion of teaching duties that has occurred in recent years affects female teachersespecially, as they have to balance the demands in both work and family contexts. Thiscross-sectional study aimed to assess demographic, labour and psychosocial predictors ofwork-family interactions within a random sample of 623 female teachers from a city inthe metropolitan area of Porto Alegre, Brazil. The instruments used were a sociodemographicand labour questionnaire, the Psychosocial Risk Assessment Battery toassess work overload, self-efficacy, social support at work, autonomy, role conflict andinterpersonal conflicts, and the Survey Work-Home Interaction-Nijmegen (SWING) toassess the work-family relationship interaction, considering its direction and quality infour dimensions - negative work-family interaction; negative family-work interaction;positive work-family interaction and positive family-work interaction. The results wereobtained by means of linear regression analysis, indicating that the overload, weeklyworkload, performance of another occupational activity, social support and self-efficacyvariables worked as predictors of the dimensions of the work-family interaction.
