Abstract

Uzun yıllardır kadınların iş gücündeki rolüne yüksek düzeyde akademik ilgi gösterilmiştir. İş-yaşam kavramlarıyla ilgili fikir ve bakış açılarına yönelik birçok değerlendirme çalışması bulunmakla birlikte, özellikle annelere özgü iş-yaşam endişelerinin kuramsal çerçevesi hakkındaki değerlendirmeler kısıtlıdır. Bu çalışma, çalışan annelerin iş-yaşam sorunlarını araştırmak için kullanılan kuramların genel bir değerlendirmesini sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmanın verileri Web of Science veri tabanından elde edilmiştir. Çalışan kadınların karşılaştığı iş-yaşam zorluklarını inceleyen toplam 63 araştırma, kullanılan kuramsal çerçeveler temelinde incelenmiştir. Yapılan inceleme sonucunda Kimlik Kuramı ve cinsiyet perspektifinin mevcut literatürde baskın olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, çalışmalarda önde gelen iş-yaşam perspektiflerinin iş-yaşam dengesi ve iş-yaşam çatışması olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışma, çalışan annelerin karşılaştığı iş-yaşam zorluklarını anlamak için kullanılan çeşitli kuramsal bakış açılarına yönelik detaylı bir değerlendirme sunmaktadır.

From Dual Roles to Dynamic Equilibrium: An Overview of Theoretical Perspectives Used in Studies Addressing Work-Life Struggles of Working Mothers

Year 2024, Volume: 19 Issue: 1, 188 - 203, 20.04.2024

Abstract

There has been much scholarly attention given to the role of women in the labor market throughout the years. While there are plenty of evaluations of ideas and perspectives regarding work-life concepts, there is limited understanding regarding the theoretical foundation of work-life concerns specifically about mothers. This study aims to provide an overview of theories used to investigate the work-life issues of working mothers. The data were collected from the Web of Science database. A total of 63 research studies examining the work-life challenges faced by employed women were evaluated based on theoretical frameworks. It was seen that identity theory and gender perspective are dominant perspectives in the current literature. In addition, the prevailing work-life perspectives adopted in the studies are work-life balance and work-life conflict. The study offers a detailed examination of the various theoretical perspectives employed in understanding the work-life difficulties encountered by employed mothers.
