- Trabalho e parentalidade: Regulação emocional, conflito laboral e autoeficácia parentalPublication . Silva, Madalena Almeida Brás Pereira da; Brandão, TâniaWork demands and family responsibilities are a challenge for numerous individuals, specifically for working parents, who try to balance this conflict. This conflict reveals significant impacts on individuals in terms of psychological well-being, emotional regulation, and the perception of their competencies as parents. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the mediating role of work-family conflict in the relationship between difficulties in emotional regulation and the perception of parental self-efficacy. A total of 228 parents participated in this study, aged between 29 and 61 years (M = 45.24; SD = 7.16), with an average age of their children being 9.73 years. The participants answered an online questionnaire composed of 3 scales validated for the Portuguese population, the Emotional Regulation Difficulties Scale (EDRE-VR), the Work-Family Conflict Scale (ECTF), and the Parental Self-Efficacy Perception Scale (PPSE), as well as a sociodemographic questionnaire. The analysis of the results was conducted using the SPSS program and the PROCESS macro. The results revealed that difficulties in emotional regulation and some of its dimensions, such as goals, impulses, and emotional clarity, are associated with the perception of parental self-efficacy, with this association being explained by the dimensions of tension and behavior of work-family conflict. However, the time dimension of work-family conflict did not reveal mediating effects in any of the mediation models. Thus, these results highlighted the importance of promoting emotional regulation skills in caregivers in order to reduce work-family conflicts and, in this way, promote the perception of self-efficacy in caregivers.
