Abstract

Abstract: According to the work-family resource model， through the analysis of 305 valid data collected at two time points， this paper explores the impact of maladaptive work/family perfectionism on employees' taking charge behavior， and reveals the mediating role of work-family conflict/family-work conflict and the moderating role of perceived social support (organizational support perception and family support perception). The results show that maladaptive work/family perfectionism has a significant negative impact on employees' taking charge behavior. Work-family conflict/family-work conflict plays a mediating role between maladaptive work perfectionism/maladaptive family perfectionism and employees' taking charge behavior. Perception of organizational support/family support perception not only moderates the negative relationship between maladaptive work perfectionism/maladaptive family perfectionism and work-family conflict/family-work conflict， but also regulates the intermediary role of work-family conflict/family-work conflict between maladaptive work perfectionism/maladaptive family perfectionism and taking charge behavior.

Key words: maladaptive perfectionism; work-family conflict; taking charge behavior; perceived social support
