Abstrakt: The present study examined the relationship between inter-role conflict and life satisfaction in a sample of working mothers. It also explored Sense of Coherence as a moderating variable in the relationship. Given the exploratory nature of the study, a cross-sectional, correlational design was adopted. Self-report data were collected from 40 working mothers from the northern suburbs of Johannesburg. Statistical analysis found that there was a significant inverse relationship between inter-role conflict and life satisfaction. Sense of Coherence was found to be a significant moderator of the inter-role conflict and life satisfaction relationship. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed in terms of the findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
