Abstract

A dual-earner family is a condition where the husband and wife work outside the home and also take care of the children at home simultaneously to fulfill the family's needs. Families in middle age undergo significant transitions, affecting both their external and internal dynamics. This research aims to analyze the impact of work-family conflict on the life satisfaction of working middle-aged families. This research was conducted using a purposive sampling with a questionnaire in Greater Jakarta. This study was conducted from July to August 2024. Data analysis was performed using SMART-PLS 3 to investigate the influence between variables. This research involved 99 women aged 46-50 years (middle age), and worked outside the home with productive working hours (7-8 hours a day). The results show that the majority of wives who work in middle age can handle work-family conflict and have good life satisfaction. The SEM analysis reveals that the higher the work-family conflict, the lower a person's life satisfaction in the family will be. This research strengthens the structural-functional theory which states there must be a homeostasis principal to maintain their respective roles in the family. This study implies that working families need to maintain a balance between work and life to enhance overall family well-being.

Abstract

Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) continues to receive global scholarly attention. Adult attachment theory provided a lens to understand IPV in close relationships. This study explored whether childhood attachment persists into adulthood, how insecure adult attachment relates to IPV risk, and what additional factors influence this across domestic and dating contexts as a form of IPV. A systematic literature review was conducted following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Articles were retrieved from Scopus and Google Scholar using predefined keywords, focusing on studies published between 2015–2025. A total of 22 studies (N = 7211) met the eligibility criteria. The findings indicate while early attachment influence adult attachment, but the situational context and additional life experiences can shape the way individuals respond to their partner or the attached figure. In addition, the dynamics of the adult attachment, anxiety, and avoidance components are related to victims and perpetrators of violence. This review deepens the understanding of IPV through the adult attachment lens, emphasizing that attachment is not a fixed predictor. Future studies should examine other psychological and contextual factors and support the development of counselling and intervention strategies for IPV prevention.
