Abstract
Purpose: This study aims to investigate the mediating effect of work overload perception on the relationship between supervisor support and work-family conflict experienced by employees.
Methodology: The created models and hypotheses were tested on a sample comprising 401 research assistants working at a public university. The data obtained were analyzed using statistical programs.
Results: According to the results of the analyses, it was concluded that supervisor support had negative correlation with work-family conflict and work overload perception. In addition, a positive relationship between work overload perception and work-family conflict was observed.
Conclusion: Based on the mediation model that was used to test the main hypothesis, it was concluded that work overload perception has a partially mediating effect on the relationship between supervisor support and work-family conflict.
