Survey of 211 Working Parents on Remote Work and Family Conflict During COVID-19

211 working parents in dual-earner families provided survey data during the COVID-19 pandemic. The dataset, created by Selda Coşkuner Aktaş and last updated in May 2026, examines relationships between time-based spousal support, self-efficacy, time demands, and work-family conflict. It likely contains variables derived from the survey questions described in the study.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the relationship between spousal support and work-to-family conflict based on the described moderating effect.
• Investigating the direct association of self-efficacy with lower work-family conflict levels as indicated in the results.
• Comparing levels of work-to-family conflict versus family-to-work conflict among remote workers.
• Studying the role of work- and family-related time demands in conflict dynamics during pandemic-induced remote work.

Strengths

• Sample size of 211 participants was confirmed via a priori power analysis to be sufficient for detecting medium effects.
• Data collection was theory-driven, drawing on Conservation of Resources Theory, Social Cognitive Theory, and Asymmetric Boundary Permeability Theory.
• Focuses on a specific, relevant population: working parents in dual-earner families engaged in pandemic-induced remote work.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain statistical methods.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred from the description or after download.
• The dataset is small at 65.2 KB, indicating limited scope and number of variables.
