Person–organization fit, work–family balance, and work attitude: The moderated mediating effect of supervisor support

I examined the mediating effect of work–family balance between person–organization fit and what are broadly viewed as the most important components of work attitude, that is, organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and turnover intention. I also investigated the moderated effect of supervisor support through this mediating process. I conducted a survey with 356 people employed in the information technology industry in China and found that work–family balance mediated the relationship between their organizational commitment and job satisfaction. I also found that supervisor support moderated the linkage of person– organization fit, work–family balance, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. However, the effect of turnover intention was nonsignificant in both the mediating and the moderated mediating model. The implications of the findings in this study for future research are discussed.
