Abstract:
This study explored work–life imbalance and social support during the Spring 20XX COVID-19 shelter-in-place restrictions and their impact on perceived stress and depression. The findings indicate that when controlling for social support, work–life imbalance was a significant predictor of both perceived stress and depression during the shelter-in-place restrictions. Moreover, higher work–life imbalance was a significant predictor of higher weak-tie support preference, while lower perceived social support predicted higher weak-tie support network preference. The implications of the study findings for theory and practice are discussed along with key limitations and directions for future research.
