Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance01:20

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance

325
Frustration occurs when people are obstructed or prevented from achieving a desired goal or fulfilling a perceived need. For example, when someone's input is ignored in a discussion, it can lead to feelings of frustration. Conflict, however, arises from opposing interests, goals, or actions. Conflicts can take various forms based on the nature of these opposing desires or goals.
One common type of conflict is the Approach–Approach Conflict. In this case, a person faces two desirable...

Frustration and Conflict: Avoidance-Avoidance, Double-Approach Avoidance

384
Avoidance-avoidance conflict refers to a psychological situation where a person must choose between two or more unpleasant alternatives. These conflicts are particularly stressful because neither option is desirable. This dilemma is often expressed in sayings like "caught between a rock and a hard place" or "between the devil and the deep blue sea." For instance, individuals who fear dental procedures may find themselves torn between enduring a painful toothache or facing the...

Cognitive Dissonance

36.6K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Virtual Work01:20

Virtual Work

1.2K
The principle of virtual work states that if a body is in static and dynamic equilibrium, then the sum of all the virtual work done by all external forces and couple moments for any given virtual displacement must be zero.
In static equilibrium, a body can experience an imaginary or virtual movement, such as displacement or rotation. The virtual work done by a force is equal to the dot product of force and virtual displacement in the direction of the force. When it comes to virtually rotating a...

Social Traps01:41

Social Traps

26.1K
Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving01:13

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

1.5K
The principle of virtual work is an essential concept in the field of mechanics and engineering. This is used to solve problems related to the equilibrium of a structure or system. It is based on the assumption that if a system is in equilibrium, the work done by all the forces during a virtual displacement is zero. This principle is applied by considering virtual displacements of the system and the corresponding work done by internal and external forces.
To apply the principle of virtual work,...

Summary

Life stages significantly influence telework behavior. Parents generally telework less, while childless individuals show gender and marital status differences. For parents, partnered status and female gender increase telework likelihood.

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Labor Economics
  • Urban Planning

Background:

  • Telework is a long-standing traffic demand management strategy.
  • Its association with life stages (gender, marital status, parenthood) remains unclear.
  • Understanding these links is crucial for effective policy implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the extent to which telework frequency associates with life stages.
  • To explain these associations through the lens of work-life conflict.
  • To identify specific patterns of telework behavior across different life stages.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized representative data from the German Microcensus 2010 (N=188,081).
  • Measured telework participation as ordered levels: never, infrequently, and frequently.
  • Employed a zero-inflated ordered probit regression model, controlling for covariates.

Main Results:

  • Life stages exhibit a complex association with telework behavior.
  • Parents are less likely to telework than non-parents, irrespective of gender/marital status.
  • Among non-parents: singles > married, males > females. Among parents: partnered > single, females > males.

Conclusions:

  • Children are a key factor in telework behavior, intensifying work-life conflicts.
  • Telework influences housework division and exacerbates gender disparities.
  • Policies supporting childcare can mitigate family-to-work conflict and boost telework adoption.
