Abstract

We need not conduct an empirical study to know that individuals’ work and family experiences are considerably dynamic. Family life can intrude on work without notice, and a difficult event at work can later strain relationships at home. Researchers seeking to understand this complexity can employ a data collection method, referred to as experience sampling (ESM), which captures frequent observations of phenomena, sometimes as they are happening. As a result, the data provide a rich picture of role experiences over time, and the method overcomes some of the limitations of cross-sectional survey research.
