Employee family relationships have been increasingly tied to job outcomes and are known to be a strong predictor of employee health and well-being. As such, taking steps toward uncovering actionable tools organizations can implement to foster improvements in family relationship quality is important and should not be overlooked in occupational health psychology interventions. Supportive supervisor training (SST) targets improving employees' ability to meet their nonwork needs; however, the focus and discussions of the implications tied to SST have largely excluded marital and parent-child relationships, spouses, and spousal outcomes. Further, mounting evidence suggests contextual factors shape when SST is most meaningful; however, more research is needed to uncover individual-level factors that may facilitate training effects. This study used a cluster-randomized controlled trial design to evaluate a worksite-based SST with a sample of 250 employees (separated military veterans) and their matched spouses. Using an intent-to-treat approach and 2-level random effects models, results demonstrated that the SST promoted couples' dyadic marital relationship quality 9 months following baseline. Additionally, when employees were under higher levels of baseline stress, couples' dyadic marital relationship quality and positive parenting both improved following the SST. Thus, an SST is beneficial for family relationships as reported by both employees and spouses, which goes beyond previously demonstrated employee health and well-being benefits.

支持性主管培训改善了员工和配偶双亲之间的家庭关系。

员工家庭关系与工作成果之间的联系越来越紧密，众所周知，员工家庭关系是员工健康和福祉的有力预测指标。因此，采取措施发现组织可以实施的可行工具，以促进家庭关系质量的改善很重要，在职业健康心理学干预措施中不应忽视。支持性主管培训（SST）旨在提高员工满足其非工作需求的能力；但是，与SST相关的含义的焦点和讨论在很大程度上排除了婚姻和亲子关系，配偶和配偶结局。此外，越来越多的证据表明，当SST最有意义时，情境因素会形成。但是，需要更多的研究来发现可能促进训练效果的个人因素。这项研究使用集群随机对照试验设计，以250名员工（分离的退伍军人）及其配偶为样本，评估了基于工作场所的SST。使用意向性治疗方法和两级随机效应模型，结果表明，SST可以在基线后9个月内提高夫妻的二元婚姻关系质量。此外，当员工处于较高的基线压力水平时，在SST之后，夫妻的二元婚姻关系质量和积极的父母养育方式都将得到改善。因此，如员工和配偶双方所报告的那样，SST对于家庭关系是有益的，这超出了先前证明的员工健康和福祉收益。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2021 APA，保留所有权利）。
