Resumen

RESUMEN A pesar de la gran cantidad de investigación en torno al conflicto familia-trabajo y el burnout laboral, aún persisten dudas sobre la relación entre estos constructos, así como sobre qué tipo de estrategias de afrontamiento son más efectivas. En este trabajo analizamos el tema desde una perspectiva de género con una muestra de 131 parejas con dos fuentes de ingresos y desarrollando análisis a nivel individual y de pareja. Los resultados a nivel individual muestran diferencias de género en la explicación de cada uno de los componentes del burnout. El principal predictor del agotamiento emocional es el conflicto trabajo-familia, mientras que el conflicto familia-trabajo lo es de la despersonalización, pero especialmente para los hombres. Sobre las estrategias de afrontamiento, conductual aparece relacionado negativamente con la despersonalización de los hombres. Sin embargo, el afrontamiento conductual y emocional incrementa ambas dimensiones del agotamiento en las mujeres, especialmente si el conflicto familia-trabajo es elevado. A nivel de pareja, los resultados confirman la relación entre los conflictos y el burnout y el papel moderador del afrontamiento conductual para explicar el agotamiento emocional.
