Abstract
The family-work interface involves both negative and positive processes. According to the Work-Family Resources Model, contextual family demands tend to generate family-work conflict, while contextual family resources foster family-work enrichment. Building on this framework, the present study focused on the direct effects of family demands and family social support on positive psychological functioning at work, examining also the mediating role of core self-evaluation and the moderating role of Brazilian jeitinho’s creativity. The jeitinho is a culturally specific construct in Brazil, and in this study, we considered only its creative and adaptive dimension, which involves flexible thinking and socially acceptable problem-solving strategies. This quantitative study was developed with 504 male and female Brazilian workers. The results of Structural Equation Modeling indicated that the family’s social support presented a positive relationship (β = .20, p < .001) and that the family’s perceived demands presented a negative relationship (β = –.24, p < .001) with positive psychological functioning at work. Furthermore, the core self-evaluation mediated these relationships, and the creativity of the Brazilian way mitigated the negative relationships between the family’s perceived demands and the core self-evaluation, while enhancing the positive relationships between social support and the core self-evaluation. These findings have important theoretical and practical implications for the family-work relationship, demonstrating how the family context, combined with the creativity of the Brazilian approach, plays a key role in promoting positive psychological functioning at work and fostering a healthier balance between family and work domains.
