Drawing upon research literature on the life stress model and social role theories, the present study aims to examine the stress-distress process within the framework of work and family roles in the People's Republic of China. Three major aspects of a role are emphasized, including contexts, stressors, and resources. Informed by Western research, a theoretical model is proposed to delineate the dynamic interrelationships of these components of work and family roles with one's subjective well-being relative to the role (role satisfaction) as well as the general psychological state (generalized distress). The transportation of the model to China entails the operationalization of major concepts and the construction of specific paths according to the cultural, political, and economic characteristics of the Chinese society. Data from 733 married and employed adults residing in urban Shanghai are used to validate the model.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Drawing upon research literature on the life stress model and social role theories, the present study aims to examine the stress-distress process within the framework of work and family roles in the People's Republic of China. Three major aspects of a role are emphasized, including contexts, stressors, and resources. Informed by Western research, a theoretical model is proposed to delineate the dynamic interrelationships of these components of work and family roles with one's subjective well-being relative to the role (role satisfaction) as well as the general psychological state (generalized distress). The transportation of the model to China entails the operationalization of major concepts and the construction of specific paths according to the cultural, political, and economic characteristics of the Chinese society. Data from 733 married and employed adults residing in urban Shanghai are used to validate the model.
520 $a Results generally support the proposed model. Work and family roles are found to provide important social contexts for the stress-distress process. The structural and physical environments in which work and family roles are situated tend to affect the exposure to stressors and availability of resources. While work and family stressors have inhibiting effects on role satisfaction and generalized well-being, resources exert facilitating effects. In addition, spillover effects are observed for stressors and resources embedded in work and family roles.
520 $a Due to the centrality of work roles in socialist China, work roles tend to be more important than family roles in affecting the Chinese psychological well-being. The socio-cultural norm that emphasizes interpersonal harmony and the pragmatic significance of interpersonal relations, especially at the workplace, contribute to the greater psychological impacts of stressors and resources associated with interpersonal relations than stressors and resources of other kinds. The well-documented gender difference in psychological distress, however, is not observed in the Chinese sample, which is attributed to the similarity in work and family experiences among Chinese men and women. The theoretical implications of these findings are discussed.
