Table 2
Descriptive statistics and inter-correlations among variables. Note. N = 509. POS = perceived organizational support; NegWHI = negative work-home interference. Correlations among variables are provided below the diagonal and Cronbach’s alphas are provided on the diagonal. *p < .05. **p < .01. ***p < .001. Absence of means and standard deviations for rhythm of work, age, presence of children between 6–12 years old, and overtime because the answers were beforehand categorized in the questionnaire.
