Abstract
Evidence shows that numerous family-related variables influence parents use of different food parenting practices (FPP), but less is known about the influence of parents work-related variables on their use of FPP, and their own and their children s outcomes in the food domain. To fill this gap, the present study explored intra-individual and inter-individual effects between work-to-family enrichment (WtoFE), parents monitoring practices, the adolescent s perception of their parents monitoring practices, and the three family members satisfaction with food-related life (SWFoL), in different-sex dual-earner parents with adolescent children. The mediating role of monitoring between WtoFE and SWFoL was also tested. A sample of 430 different-sex dual-earner parents and one of their adolescent children (average age 13.0 years, 53.7% female) were recruited in Rancagua, Chile, during March and June 2020. The three family members answered the monitoring dimension of the Compressive Feeding Practices Questionnaire and the Satisfaction with Food-Related Life Scale. Parents answered a measure of WtoFE based on the Work Home Interaction Survey. Analyses were conducted using the Actor Partner Interdependence Model and structural equation modelling. Results showed a positive association between WtoFE and SWFoL, directly (p < 0.001) and through monitoring in fathers (95% confidence interval [0.010, 0.097], actor effect). The father s (p = 0.042) and mother s (p = 0.006) WtoFE was positively associated with their adolescent s SWFoL (partner effects). The father s (p = 0.002) and mother s (p = 0.036) WtoFE were positively associated with their own monitoring (actor effect), while only the father s WtoFE (p = 0.014) was positively associated with the adolescent s perception of their parents monitoring (partner effect). The father s (p = 0.018) and mother s (p = 0.003) monitoring, as well as the adolescents perception of their parents monitoring (p = 0.033), were positively associated with their own SWFoL (actor effects), while the mother s monitoring (p = 0.043) was also associated with the father s SWFoL (partner effects). Findings suggest that both parents WtoFE improved their monitoring practices, which, in turn, improved their own SWFoL and their adolescent child s SWFoL. Policymakers and organizations must aim to promote the WtoFE of working parents. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
