Psychologists and management researchers review theory, research, and practice on the major issues associated with work and life balances in Asia. They cover negotiating work-life balance at
the individual and familial levels, negotiating work-life balance at the organizational and societal levels, and cross-cultural perspectives. Among the topics are testing a cultural theory of
work and family in Taiwan, the early child-rearing experience of dual-earner couples in urban China, generational differences in work-life balance values in Asia: the case of Greater China
Region workers, policies to support work-life balance and the impact of work stress on family life among emotional laborers in Korea, and the cross-cultural impact of work-life balance on
health and work outcomes. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
