Resumo:This study aims to investigate the mediating role of work-family positive spillover (WFPS) in the relationship between both general supervisor support (GSS) as well as family supportive supervisor behavior (FSSB) on work engagement, and to explore which of these two types of support play a more crucial role on this well-being state. Data was collected in a sample of 500 members of the Portuguese National Republican Guard (GNR), of which 291 responded to a questionnaire. The first hypothesis was set to verify whether FSSB is more positively related to WFPS than GSS, it was confirmed that there exists a positive relationship between supervisor support (both general as well as family-specific) and WFPS, however, the results show that neither type of support is more positively related than the other, as both have an equal impact. The second hypothesis was set to verify whether there was a mediating effect of WFPS on the relationship between supervisor support (both general as well as family-specific) and engagement. The results demonstrated that WFPS has a mediating effect on supervisor support (both general as well as family-specific) and engagement. However, the results also demonstrated that there was a significant relation between supervisor support (general and work-family specific) and engagement without the mediation of WFPS, thus concluding in a model of partial mediation. The results contribute to a better understanding of WFPS in relation to supervisor support. Some practical implications, limitations and suggestions for future studies are also presented.
