1. The analyses in the paper reveal three patterns: mediating, suppression, and moderating effects. In addition, the paper delineates three theoretical perspectives including role-blurring hypothesis, suppressed-resource hypothesis, and buffering-resource hypothesis. Please match each of the three hypothesis with each of the three patterns. In other words, which hypothesis corresponds to which pattern?
2. In order to solve the issue of spurious relationships among schedule control, role blurring, and work–family conflict, the authors control for several measures in their models. What are those measures?
3. In Model 4 of Table 2 in the paper, the authors include schedule control and working at home simultaneously in the model. Model 4 shows that the inclusion of working at home reduces the magnitude of the coefficient of “some schedule control” from 0.30 (in Model 2) to 0.23 (in Model 4). Also, the inclusion of working at home reduces the magnitude of the coefficient of “full schedule control” from 0.74 (in Model 2) to 0.38 (in Model 4).
a. What do these findings mean? (e.g., how can we interpret them?)
b. Which pattern mentioned above (e.g., mediating, suppression, and moderating patterns) do these findings correspond to?
c. What hypothesis mentioned above (e.g., role-blurring hypothesis, suppressed-resource hypothesis, and buffering-resource hypothesis) do these findings support?
4. In Model 4 of Table 3 in the paper, the authors include work-family multitasking in the model. The inclusion of work-family multitasking in the model alters the magnitude of the coefficient of “some schedule control” from -0.07 (in Model 3) to -0.13 (in Model 4) and makes the coefficient of “some schedule control” statistically significant. Also, the inclusion of work-family multitasking changes the magnitude of the coefficient of “full schedule control” from -0.20 (in Model 3) to -0.32 (in Model 4).
a. What do these findings mean? (e.g., how can we interpret them?)
b. Which pattern mentioned above (e.g., mediating, suppression, and moderating patterns) do these findings correspond to?
c. What hypothesis mentioned above (e.g., role-blurring hypothesis, suppressed-resource hypothesis, and buffering-resource hypothesis) do these findings support?
5. In Model 5 of Table 3 in the paper, the authors include interaction terms (e.g., some schedule control x multitasking; full schedule control x multitasking) in the model. The model shows that the coefficients of the interaction terms are significant. Also, the authors provide some graphical illustrations of these interaction effects.

b. Which pattern mentioned above (e.g., mediating, suppression, and moderating patterns) do these findings correspond to?
c. What hypothesis mentioned above (e.g., role-blurring hypothesis, suppressed-resource hypothesis, and buffering-resource hypothesis) do these findings support?
