Abstract

The aim of this study is to systematically summarize and analyze the relationship between work-family enrichment and core self-evaluation. A systematic literature review procedure was applied to search and review articles in four databases. In this study, 27 paper s(29 studies) were included. The systematic literature review mostly revealed the relationship between general work-family enrichment/family-work enrichment and general core self-evaluation and self-efficacy. To provide a summary of the results, a random effects model was employed for statistical analysis. The metaanalytic results revealed a moderate positive relationship between work-family enrichment and core self-evaluation, as well as between work-family enrichment and self-efficacy. Considering that self-efficacy is domain-specific, additional analysis was performed. Results revealed that work-family enrichment has a stronger relationship to family-domain-specific self-efficacy compared to general self-efficacy. Furthermore, the results indicated that gender did not moderate the relationship between work-family enrichment and core self-evaluation, and work-family enrichment and self-efficacy. Recommendations for future research and practice are discussed.
