Revisions

[edit]

I would like to make revisions to this page. These revisions would concern formatting and construct clarification. I would like to add a section about the different types of work-family spill-over that can occur, such as "positive work-family spill-over." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Babaker137 (talkcontribs) 16:47, 19 February 2013 (UTC) Babaker137 (talk) 15:19, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a section about the three most recognized types of work-family conflict. Babaker137 (talk) 16:46, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The only thing that distracted me was the section titled “Workaholism.” The article seems pretty neutral. The section on gender was assumed to be mostly about women but this has changed recently within organizations so I believe that this area needs to be updated. I would say that the section regarding gender is a tad overrepresented and seems to take up a large part of the article page. Most of the citations or links can be found within the first paragraph in the article. There can definitely be more references made within the article due to the updates on the information within it. The information comes from journals or websites. The sources seem neutral, but the bias would have to be included when discussing women and workplace-family conflict due to a woman now becoming more socially accepted as a worker instead of a stay at home mom. The citations are a little out of date. They could be improved upon by finding more modern citations because these issues regarding the topic have changed over time. There is discussion about revisions to be made regarding adding in positive work family spill over. The article is part of numerous projects. One is with feminism, another is involved with sociology, and then there’s another occupational safety and health. It is rated as a start-class as well as low-importance.

Erin Toporski Revisions

[edit]

There are more than just a few revisions to be made on this article.

  • For starters, only one of the citations out of the many listed actually works when you click on it. The rest didn't even give you an option to click on them to be brought to the article that was cited. I don't know if that means they were deleted or just weren't legitimate.
  • Each fact in the article is references but all the references do not seem to be reliable. Like I said before, only one of the citations allows you to click on it.
  • I think the article does a good job staying neutral throughout the whole piece so we need to make sure that we keep up with that as well.
  • Lastly, I feel like a lot of the sections could be revised and added to greatly. Workaholism, forms of conflict, and reducing conflict would be talked about more in depth because they are all relatively short. The article itself is relatively short and I think we need to work on making it longer with in depth explanations and facts.
  • I think the article would benefit from adding other sections as well. At this time I'm not sure what other sections should be added but after conversing as a group I am confident that we would be able to come up with a few that would really benefit the article.

Adding an Abstract/Executive Summary section

[edit]

I think this paper would benefit from an abstract or executive summary, which is now absent.

This section will provide a brief overview of the issue, summarize the main results, and suggest directions for further study.   Atmadnan (talk) 13:58, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The rising social relevance of work-family conflicts

[edit]

Since the vast majority of working adults report that their jobs prevent them from fulfilling their family responsibilities, this article will devote some space to exploring the societal implications of this growing problem.   Atmadnan (talk) 14:03, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
