Job satisfaction mediation in the relationship between work-family conflict and life satisfaction among Turkish academicsÖztürk, MeralTürk, AhmetTire, OlcayGönültaş, Burak M.academicsjob satisfactionlife satisfactionwork-family conflictThis study examined the mediating role of job satisfaction in explaining the relationship between work-family conflict and life satisfaction among Turkish academicians. Employing a cross-sectional study design 645 academicians aged between 24 and 65 (male = 45.1%, female = 54.9%; professors = 12.1%, associate professors = 17.7%, assistant professors = 28.2%, lecturers = 17.8%, research assistants = 24.2%; mean age and SD = 39.72 ± 8.94) completed the Job Satisfaction Scale, Life Satisfaction Scale, and the Work-Family Conflict Scale. They also self-reported their demographics. The findings from PROCESS MACRO analysis indicated work-family conflict to predict lower job satisfaction among academicians. Those with higher job satisfaction were also self-reported with higher life satisfaction. Lob satisfaction mediated the relationship between the academician’s work family conflict and life satisfaction for higher life satisfaction. The findings of this study indicate a need to implement work-family and life satisfaction measures to enhance job satisfaction among academics.Taylor and Francis Ltd.2025Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/munzur/1744https://doi.org/10.32604/jpa.2025.0680431433-0237enJournal of Psychology in Africainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://munzur-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/munzur/1744
